Special Or Favourite Plant

Hey, when I posted the last you had the other new avatar Windy Miller. I'm not sure that I like this one so much, it's more cute than pretty, but I do like your new signature - no, I love it!

 

Thanks KG,
Will probably change it again?!! Trying to find the right one might take some time. Head Banger's a hard act to follow! But I have something else in mind that is soooooo me. All will be revealed in time

 

You've got an interesting lot of answers. I asked the same question some months back, and the most common answers were nostalgic memories and associations, and that there wasn't really any one favourite - it depended on what was in season at the time. Rhodies were frequently mentioned, though - but not this time....

As for me, well, I'm one of the "Don't really have one - depends on what's around at the time" brigade

P.S. - CAn't wait Windy M!

 

Hi Dendrobium sorry for going over what you had already posted.I did look thru previous posts briefly before i put it on,but did not go back far enough.regards

 

No, it had to be removed - no worries, and there are loads more people here now, so it's really interesting - honest!

 

Am also a bit fickle with each year/season bringing something new. This year it has been Anthemis E C Buxton - the creamy yellow variety which has flowered continuously since June much different to the Regal Pelargonium 'Lord Bute' which wa the star performer in last year's garden

I suppose that this is a regular question and one that interests me most.

 

nasturtiums are special to me ......1st thing i ever grew

 

That's a point, GW! I've always had a soft spot for Livingstone daisies for the same reason! And californian poppies, because I used to ease the caps off them when Mum and Dad weren't looking!! :rolleyes:

 

d very naughty

 

hi rosa, now that's what I call neighbours! My neighbour went shopping the other week and brought me back a peg-bag! I had been keeping my pegs in a plastic tesco bag!

 

I love fuschias! I have a few in my garden, unfortunately, due to me being a complete novice, they are hidden in the middle of other flowers! The flowers on them are HUMUNGOUS!!! A lesson well learned for next year!

 

dragged this thread up from the depths, just to show you my favourite plant, that has just started flowering! Dierama.

 

Now what Dierama is that? Mine are not flowering but some have buds. I am building up my collection...I must have 10 -12 different types. I have igneum and there are buds on one called Snowbells, I think one is Guinevere and I have forgotten all the species that are coming on.

 

i think livingston daisies are hard to beat

 

its called "cherry chimes". I also have 1 called lancelot i think.
