      Are your photos taken at Ness Botanic Gardens @stephenprudence? The Acacias there were also spectacular in December.

        Yes every plant is in Ness except the Daphne. It looked great and felt almost like Spring today. Interestingly there were signs that Callistemon pallidus has flowered in the last week.

          I thought they looked familiar. I usually make a monthly visit, another one due soon!

          Is that 4th picture an aristolochia @stephenprudence ? If so, the Costa Wirral is even more amazing!

              I feel like living on a different planet seeing their pictures :biggrin:

              Your Amarylis looks marvellous. My mother loves them too and sent a bulb to me a few years ago.

                  It's Aristolochia baetica a surprisingly hardy evergreen vine from Portugal.
