            Chiastophyllum Oppositifolium.....a new picture taken this evening but not looking a lot different to the older picture in post #83. The pink petals are from the Cistus behind.

                        That's a shame @Anthony Rogers , there are so many lovely climbing plants. It's a pitty you haven't got anywhere for them :frown:

                          Hi Michael,
                          I do grow climbers but mostly only annuals such as Sweet Peas .

                          I have a couple of Fuchsias ( Lady Boothby and Pink Fizz ) that are permanent because they don't take up so much room , oh and three Clematis.

                          It's just that a Rose would need a large space of its own which we haven't got.

                            I am amazed that this Ensete Maurelii survived two winter nights of -6/7c when I lost less delicate plants.

                            Tradescantia, this must have come in with something else, may be Bluebells given to us as I didn't plant it. As it fills a gap I leave it there.

                            Tropical bed, not ideal as it faces north, totally wrong aspect!
                            but it looks ok.
