Floriferous! I would take more photos but DBH keeps nicking the camera to take photos of butterflies and insects in his school's woods. The cecile brunner photo didn't come out too well.

Lovely colour combination Janerowena

It's painting with flowers really, isn't it.

Nothing has worked so far, so will have a try using all links to photobucket.

I fear that GNs admin were being a little overoptimistic when they suggested even 50, but really we should be able to go up to 100, surely, on a board like this.

Or not! I shall have another go tomorrow, I forgot how long-winded it all is now to get a photo to upload.

What a lovely thread, such beautiful flowers. There are several I'll be looking out for when I'm next visiting the garden centre.
My garden's rather dull at the moment......

How lovely. My garden is very hit and miss and we have had a hosepipe ban that has been lifted only this week because of massive storms recently. They, of course, have cause the weeds to flourish. Oh dear!

It doesn't want to play, even after they have been edited!

I can only post one at a time.

By the looks of it.

So, just a few hellbores then! I love them, they make the winter feel shorter as they are in flower from early December until almost summer, depending on the variety. I have loads of them, all different colours.

Reported!!!

Oh dear! Have a look at my fireplace instead. I was thinking of growing red and yellow plants in front of it - red hot pokers would be appropriate!

Red hot pokers or red/orange crocosmia would look good!

Now that's a good idea - I have some crocosmia I can move. I don't really want red hot pokers, I quite like the yellow ones though.

Has any one grown Billbergia? I have never heard of it and Googled it for info. It looks gorgeous, looking forward to seeing it flower when I will try to post a pic.

It sounds like a disease, caz! Looking forward to seeing what it looks like.

My mother had one, she went through a phase of growing epiphytes in her bathroom. She had an old tree branch and used to attach various plants, mainly bromeliads, to it.

They were given to me by a friend they look similar to a Christmas cactus I suppose only larger. I am constructing a new garden on what was a veg plot, patio, small pond and now plants. Such hard work, not the patio, a builder did that, but well worth it. I love garden I g, even with a back problem.

It was given to me by a friend for a new garden I am constructing. A bit like a Christmas cactus only larger.

Woops sorry posted twice, didn't think the first was sent.

You'll have to bring it indoors when it gets cooler, though. So it's quite a tropical-looking garden, then!

One of my bird feeders, complete with DBH's pork crackling. How was I to know he was saving it for later?
