          My Choisya 'Sundance'.........

          IMG_4078.JPG

          ............Now fully recovered from being buried on it's side for weeks under this lot in March, 2013. I really didn't think I could save it at the time as it was badly battered.

          It is in the corner below behind the pole, not that you can see it.

            Lupins are looking great but it's a shame my annuals are a disaster this year. They haven't done what it said on the packet! :doh:

                  It's another self seeded Iris foetidissima that has flowered for the first time. Growing in fairly deep shade and very much on the dry side it has a truly outstanding colour combination to my eye.

                    Gorgeous longk and to me at any rate very unusual.

                      I allow a few to self seed simply because of the variety in colours Silu. I can have a look around and pick a couple of seedlings out for you if you want.

                            Oh thank you @longk. I'm getting to stage of hardly liking to say I like so many of your unusual plants because you 're so generous in offering them to me! I will now have to wrack my brains to think of something which isn't too big and you might not have ......oh yes I have been quite successful with saving seedlings off my clump of Trilium grandiflorum (not flore pleno I'm afraid:cry3:) They are potted up atm. I have a few which I potted up last year and so might with a small m start to flower in 2017. You are welcome to those if you don't have and can stand the wait!
