Show us your houseplants in bloom now

Nice!
I have one small bulb which I'm bringing along.
I also have some Scadoxus which is summer flowering...........

 

This is my cutting that I've started today. It will be my 2013 contestant Keith,

 

I've lost the plot ... what is it that you folk are growing competitively ?

 

Sorry,I've hi jacked this thread
awaiting Longk's new thread for our Parrot Impatiens competition (see #83).
Jenny

 

Yeah, I read #83 ... and the one that referred back to ... and ... and ... and ... and then lost the plot!

That's the bit I was after, ta

Given you are competing for height maybe the "Impatient Parrot Competition"?!

 

Like THAT one Kristen!

 

Got me a christmas cactus too

Not as good as Rodders one lol, only got it from Morrisons the other week though

 

Far better than my effort though RudeBwoy!

ps; are you a Ska lover?

 

The Clerodendrum is blooming its heart out now!

 

ta mate, i cheated though, only bought mines the other week and I'll probs mess it up for next year lol.

sorry never really liked Ska. was a bit before my time anyways.

 

Most of my 'houseplants' are outside.. but they are not in bloom.. In the Spring I should be able to report on a few of my 'houseplants' blooming;

Indian azalea (always puts on a great display every spring)
Jasminum polyanthum (pink Jasmine), actually still growing now!
Perhaps Easter cactus if I get hold of one
Chlorophytum maybe?
and perhaps Kalanchoe blossfeldiana (flaming Katie)

We will see..

 

Most of mine spend the summer outdoors too, but they would never have tolerated the minus sevens that we had a couple of weeks ago.............

 

Ludisia "Jasper Velvet" in bloom now. The flowers are identical to "Jade Velvet".............


..................but the foliage is very different in colour...................

 

Beautiful dainty white flower in the first pic, it really looks so delicate. I've never seen that species before.

 

They're pretty common late in the year. Lidl is a really good source for them, but only for a week or two every year. Possibly the easiest orchid to keep and propagate too.
