Lottery Mix

I won't make mimosa salad with it just yet then!

 

Here's my guesses.
1. nice ipomaea, dont know what kind though.
2.horny cucumber, cucumis.
3. not a clue
4. aptenia
5. cyperus alternifolius
6. I dont think its kangaroo paw, but I like it.
7. eucalyptus for sure.
8. acacia
9. acacia

They all look well and are doing fine waco.

 

just had another look at no 1, is that a tendril I see, in other words is it not a twiner.

 

Pete re no 1, its cobea scandens behind it - now going for its 3rd time roundthe grenhouse! well spotted that man!!!

no 8 & 9 look similar but its the different leavs that bug me.

I will have to look the others up.

 

I've sort of missed this somehow ... are you sure I didn't send you any Cobaea scandens, Waco? Here is mine and I've been sending them to everyone ... mine must be 30 feet at least ...

 

No.8 -maybe some kind of vetch?

 

Thats a mighty BIG cobea LoL

no seeds did not come from you - loads of other things did but not cobea.

What colour is your cobea, and does it flower well?

I think mine may be a bit big for the greenhouse after seeing yous.

 

Hi, Waco, here's the thread on mine ...

The above pictures were taken this week for rosa. If yours gets like mine, you can wrap it around your greenhouse! One word of warning, they attach themselves to anything nearby! :eek:

 

Regarding 8 & 9, waco,
Acacias all start out with that pinnate leaf shape, some keep it, others change to a long thin leaf after a short period, it depends on the spieces.
There is a chance that you have two different kinds there.

 

8 looks exactly like my Albizia seedlings.

 

Yes I think you are right pete with acacia - I hope so as I quite like them.

I also like Albizia too, though I confess I have just had to look it up. I managed to get 2 of them, one is growing quite well, but one looks very sick, I think I may have got it a bit wet.

 

EVERYTHING is a bit WET at the moment Waco.

 

Yes pete, but this one is inside the greenhouse!

Will I be able to eat the horny cucumber?
