What's in bloom?
Time to play the "what's in the bloom?" game! ;-)
We've returned to find Euryops, Salvia involucrata plus a couple of other Salvias, Fuchsias and Daphne bhoula, Vincas, Hellebore, Nerines of course and amazingly the Amicia zygomeris is putting out little shoots all along its branches. I daresay any frost later will deal with those, however. Anyone else? -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.co.uk |

Plus a little pink flower on the thing that looks like a nettle but isn't, with white stripes on its leaves and it's a ground cover sort of plant really. Sharon |

Sharon Sharon, Your nettle thing is probably a Lamium. "Shell Pink" maybe. All sorts of things out here and today discovered a lovely flower on the Pulsatilla rubra. Regards Iris (McCanna) |

The message
from sacha contains these words: Time to play the "what's in the bloom?" game! ;-) In our almost empty new Arran garden,(no frost yet), only one thing; a pink escallonia. In the pots that moved with us; a dark hellebore is budding well, and a viburnum is open. Gardens round about; purple and white hebes, and many fuschias. Janet. |

writes Time to play the "what's in the bloom?" game! ;-) snipped has anyone got daisys growing? Keith Yes, a few flowers showing in sheltered places along with pansies, primulas etc. Even more remarkable is the crop of raspberries we picked today (Fri). They just seem to go on for ever and we are now wondering whether we shall pick a few in December - for the first time ever as far as I can recall. -- Alan & Joan Gould - North Lincs. |

All my V bodnantense have been in strong flower for several weeks now, as has the winter jasmine. It's now very much into winter garden mode, with the main colour coming from all the berries and coloured barks. -- Kay Easton Edward's earthworm page: http://www.scarboro.demon.co.uk/garden/ |

Also now spotted that Fuschia Autumnale has still got a few flowers on it here. Plenty of daisies in the lawn, and an outdoor tomato ahs just started a new shoot. Thinking of winter colour I am amazed that very few garden programmes use Calicarpa, ours is a picture, the berries last all winter and are visible all over the garden. I was reminded of this seeing a programme today on TV which was going to use the plant, the first time I've ever seen it mentioned. Mike www.british-naturism.org.uk |

Mike www.british-naturism.org.uk Mike, I was just wondering about trying to get seed of Callicarpa, but didn't know how fussy it was about the conditions it needs to produce berries. Do you know which sort yours is? Janet G |
