Plant parcels

I am always excited to receive plants, here is an order from Turn it Tropical.

Here I have Aloe ‘Cleopatra’, Cordyline fruticosa ‘Mambo’, Impatiens arguta ‘Blue Dream’ and auricoma x bicaudata, finally Rhipsalis ramulosa.

I couldn’t help getting this little badge too!

Do you have a plant on your wish list? I have been searching for these for a while now. I have even tried to grow them from seed.

These are Mirabilis longiflora, they are not as commonly grown as their relatives Mirabilis Jalapa. These have white long highly scented flowers.

How beautiful are these white lilies?! I bought these in autumn 2008 from Peter Nyssen and they are great performers! These are Lilium martagon ‘Snowy morning’.

Here is the first ever flower on my Iris Chrysographes ‘Just around midnight’.

Truthfully I was hoping that they would have been blacker, still they are a very beautiful flower.

A much blacker flower are these Petunias I bought last year. They didn’t wither this winter, they did get a little straggly but I tidied them up and here they about to open up.

I have hung my new rhipsalis in a pot that I had made a homemade ‘macrame’ for. Here’s to hoping it is happy here.

I am pleased to see we have had more rain, hoping to fill the water butts and giving the plants a good drink!
