WHAT'S LOOKING GOOD IN JUNE 2018

I believe that it may be but I'm not good with common names I'm afraid.

Not really - I just chuck plants in where I think that they will do well. I'm quite selective about what I grow though.
That bamboo screen is just some cheap old tat that I bought to hide the wheelie bins

 

Roses, not really my thing, but I have one, it's an old friend for certain reasons,

Not sure what it's trying to tell me.
It aint supposed to be this colour.


Protea.


Iochromas,

Iochroma, with a little bit of Calycanthus occidentalis.

 

Oh forgot, a cactus Lobivia, really like the flower colour of this one, not that common I dont think?

Kind of looks pink here, but the camera lies.

 

Well there's your own answer selective that's why you have a beautiful turn out

That's new one mate bamboo to hide bins

 

Pete what an outstanding show mate...that looks a real eye catcher

Never seen a Protea before and the heads look nice but unusual

 

@pete that sport on your rose is interesting - does the flower get pinker as it ages? I like the original colour - what is its name please?
And it's really unfair how well your protea is doing! Mine in my greenhouse has still not opened, whereas the one I keep in (cold) polytunnel always seems to abort the buds half formed.

 

John have you had shoots from the bottom of yours...I did a discussion on mine plus more shoots have got to be removed...your flower head look lovely

Cordyline Australis and Flowering

 

John I have shoots come through the gravel the Cordyline base and stem...I can't cut them off quick enough but Pete's told me how many to keep to each one but he thinks mine may not flower but we're hoping the other's mature nice and then we may consider cutting the stem...10ft is a good height, i'll get hubby to measure our tallest one

 

@JWK He's just measured the tallest one it's 8ft
