    The dried leaves once died have always been removed from mine, I've just been out side giving hubby orders on what pic's to take :snorky: so I can add them to my discussion.

    Those flower heads do look quite large [​IMG] but these plants when matured would cost the earth to buy from a garden centre. :)

    My 3 fuschias mate :)

      Nice fuchsias what type are they?

      I've just been outside, on my small step ladder, and removed around 100 leaves from my palm.
      They had fallen into the tree fork and built up into a huge pile.

      Forgot to add they are a snail haven and snails manage to get to the top of the tree.
      Also the bees love the flower spikes and you can hear them buzzing around.

        Do you think it could be a Yucca? The trunk is so smooth that it doesn't really suggest a palm tree. Anyways it's stunning, you are a lucky person to have such a plant Pushkin :love30: If you can grow your Rambling Whomever through it you might have to start holding open days for charity. What a showstopper... :wub2:

        :yikes: Gail, are you egging us on? I'm NOT a naughty person with a sense of humour of a 4 year old! Your 3 fuchsias are free to do what they like assuming they are all consenting mature plants. :mute: I'll get my coat

          I doubt very much if your Rose would have been grafted onto a named variety @Pushkin .
          Roses are usually grafted on to a wild Rose rootstock to gove them more energy

            Good evening @Pushkin Pauls scarlet rambler Rose has a Dr Huey rootstock ,a Hybrid Wichurana rambler,crossed with the rose Rêve d'Or which is a Tea Noisette. its probably reverted back to that.:smile:

              Looks like Yucca Elephantipes, where was the pic taken, not seen any that good in the UK, but then I dont get out much.

              @Pushkin pic is Cordyline Australis.

              Bit of a garbled thread :lunapic 130165696578242 5:
              I thought it was about roses.:scratch:

                    There appears to be quite a lot of mystery surrounding Rambling Rector. ('Goings on in the rectory, me thinks)...raised eyebrow'

                    What attracted my attention to begin with. Rosa Paul's Scarlet. Now you have what you quote as being a sucker, but strangely resembles an entirely seperate variety. I am wondering if by chance some part of the DNA of former breeding has come through. Might be worth contacting Peter Beales Roses.

                        Many thanks Tetters, yes I had missed Wise Owles post, but I think we were both much on the same line of thought.
