I'm amazed at Charlie's Clianthus and Polygala but he's in the tropics
compared to most! ;-))
Any more?


I am amazed at the Clianthus as well, I grew it from seed, planted it
last January on the new wall, noticed the buds in September and its been
flowering ever since, I thought they were a May June event, perhaps it
will settle down as it gets older. The Polygala flowered all winter last
year and just as I was feeling smug that nasty frost on the 4th April
killed it stone dead! (so this is me trying again under the false hope
that we wouldn't have two cold years in a row!!)
