      I have nelly moser, tangiculata, the president and a couple others which I've forgotten the name of. Nelly moser does really well against our East facing wall. Flowers don't fade so much.

            @Spruce .....I really like this one. It was posted on pinterest but not named. Tying to identify it. Any ideas?

            [​IMG]

            This is C. Rebecca which is on my short list...like the red colour and it's good for a container....


            [​IMG]

            Also C. Crystal Fountain also good for a container...
