      it may be a struggle to reach the top, but once your over the hill your problems start.

        • Today it’s another hardy Fuschia, Madam Cornelson, I think. Really tough but late flowering.

              • A red germanium still doing well on a window sill. Similar to what Veggie said in a previous post with her pink geranium this red germanium was left out last winter where it had been in the summer and though the frost blackened the plant it survived the winter where we had snow and at least twice a half inch of ice over the pond and this spring it sported new shoots and grew and flowered. There would be a small protection being left out on the window sill but still must have felt below zero temperatures. It makes me wonder - are gernamiums more hardy than we give them credit?

                  • Another dahlia - without a name but particularly popular with the bees.

                          • The dahlias are great fun as I've no idea what colour or type they are - never grown dahlias before.

                            Your flower is a Streptocarpus/ Cape Primrose. Like the colour.

                            • Thanks VC thought that was the name (Cape Primrose) but OH said I was wrong evidently she was thinking of Streptocarpus
