@Spruce - I'm beginning to wonder if you may have an obsession with Daylilies

 

A few more;

Digitalis "Illumination Gold". New this year (from a swap) and settling in well...................


Fuchsia procumbens.....................


Sues Iochroma australis which was planted out and seems happy enough..................


My Aloe striatula is really happy this year....................


Rhodochiton atrosanguineus....................


My old cat Sage is happy too....................

 

Does it set seed Keith? Any chance of one or two if so please?

And I wonder what you have OCD in as well @longk

Yes at the last count not including my own crosses that should flower next year over a 100 easily and if I had more space I would have soooo many more , and more new photos to put on here , at least you can see what ones you like but I do have mainly "Spider type" & "UF'S".

You want to see @simbad and @Wylie collections they knock the socks off with me !!

@Val..
Looking good , love the fresh colours , time for taking cuttings next week or two , they will root in this warm weather in 3 to 4 weeks, so get the multipurpose compost at the ready and mix in sand at a 50/50 rate plastic bag over the pot with two or three holes in so they don't sweat.

Side shoots with no flowers if you can find any if not pinch the flower off, about 2 inches or 5.1 cm long , strip the bottom leaves off and straight into the pot and keep somewhere shaded, pot up individuality when rooted and keep in the greenhouse over winter or cloche.

No probs. It does set seed, although it can be patchy. Remind me at the end of the season.

I may have a few Salvia.................

I know spider types, but what are UF'S?

 

Unusual Forms

 

When's that then ?

She did manage to seed herself about three times before I got her to the vets in an "untarnished" state and got her done!!!
