      I had T'other Half move all my Brugmanias (4) from The Courtyard Hothouse to the Dancefloor Patio in front of the house as it gets some shade there. This one I got from Spain as a 10-12cm cutting with root in late February and it has romped away and seems to have developed lots of stems.
      That is the Melaleuca in the back where Van has made himself a "nest" :cat-kittyandsmiley:

      It is supposed to be a Double Red & White.

                Looking good. I like the hanging basket, very pretty and colourful ... pink and orange together, my favourite, and variegated leaves.

                    A first-ever flower has opened on the Passiflora 'White Lightning' I planted last year! Big relief as, although it had been developing lots of buds, none had opened before today and so I was beginning to worry that the fence I'd planted it on was too shady. But this flower is actually near the bottom of the fence, so hopefully the rest will start opening now too :spinning:

                        I have a number of Fuchsias flowering at present & more varieties to come yet. Here are some pictures of a few in flower at this time:

                        .
                        In a couple of weeks there will be many more flowers from other varieties that haven't started to flower at present. I have several in a hanging baskets that have buds but they still need another week or two before they open.
