... out in the garden.

Tmesipteris lanceolata .
I have a Dicksonia grown from an imported trunk and a few interesting plants have grown out of the trunk (in addition to the delightful Dicksonioa of course). This was fairly easy to identify as a Tmesipteris - the identification as T.lanceolata is a bit more speculative for the moment.

Camellia sasangua 'Paradise Glow' .
I know nothing about the Paradise' varieties of Camellia sasangua, so this flower was a pleasant surprise. I bought a few autumn flowering Camellias to adorn the newly flattened garden entrance, which is otherwise a sea of mud and hardcore at the moment.

Chirita sclerophylla .
I got this curious little Chirita from China during last winter, and now suddenly it has rushed up into flower, which I am very pleased about. I had a few odd Gesneriads at the time, and have not done quite so well with some of them (hangs head in shame).

Acer palmatum 'Sekka Yatsubusa' .
Hardly surprisingly there has been very little in the way of autumn colour this year - the display has been rained off (rained on?). There has been a brief show among the smaller Acer palmatum varieties because they are in the greenhouse (which is probably cheating).

I have a lot of good intentions when it comes to updating this site, and I try to keep a note about what is going on, if you are interested.
