Whats Looking Good In July 2023

Gloriosa superba climbing "lily" as the flowers develop the colours change.


Sinningia tubiflora

Sweet Pea

Sunflower

Eryngium planum, non spiky species


Eryngium agavifolium a very spiky one.

Berkheya purpurea South African prickly thistle.

Zauschneria californica "Glasnevin"

Amicia zygomeris

Acanthus hungaricus

Ugni molinea Chilean Guava

 

Drosera

Sarracenias

These insectivorous plants really didn't like last year or May June this year, the recent wet spell has really caused then to perk up.

 

Erythrina crista-galli


Asclepias curassavica


Echeveria setosa

Some Osteos.

Leucospermum still doing well and in need of a repot.

 

Lovely and choc-a-bloc full of colour Upsy.

 

Datura wrightii, I like watching these open, they only stay open for one night and a day, if cool and cloudy,(should be ok then), quite scented on a warm evening, (not so likely to happen), but here it is.
Going,

Going

Gone.


Sweetcorn looks good but the male flowers are way ahead of the female cobs, I hope it works out ok.


A couple of nice Zinnias.

 

Oh I love Datura but haven't had one for many years ...

J called it Frilly Knickers ...

 

I had that kind a few years ago as well @Victoria

 

Sis did too in Florida ...
