    Pete yours have beaten mine! :thumb: I still have last years own seed, they are so easy to pollenate but I don't think I will bother this year.
    I have something openning out that will make Lol and Kedi look twice. Lucky nuts to them.:D

    It's all looking beautiful, guys and gals .... I'm jealous because everything is frying here at the mo ..... :eek:

    Strongy, I know what it is and I'll put my hands up on my face and only peek through my fingers ... as will Sis I know! ;) Both of mine look healthy but certainly no sign of flowers .... funnily enough, we were sitting on the new front-of-house patio a while ago and remarking how well they looked. :rolleyes: Waiting impatiently ...................

    I have purple Iochroma, Cutie, our dear walnut first told me about them ... can't put a pic up now as it's having a rest in the heat after it's first flush but I think there's a thread on it in Other Plants. ;)

    I too love your Asiatic Lily Vesuvius .... VERY hot and makes a lovely avatar .... except for the date on it ..... :D xx
