Taken summer 2003. There will probably be more when I get a digital camera.

 

What is that mauve coloured climber then? you have in your picture. rosetu :rolleyes:

 

Rosetu
The reddish climber to the right is Clematis Ernest Markham (if I remember the name correctly), and the blue funnel shaped flower is Ipomoea Purpurea, A form of perrenial morning glory.

 

Where might one obtain "Ipomora purpurea"
Loved it very showy, Just started a very small garden, laid mostly to slabs and trellis if you can't go out go up... and I could find a place for some thing as nice as that and it a perennial a bonus! rosietu

 

Its perennial but unfortunately not hardy, I take cuttings and grow it in large pots, which I place outside in May,And cut back and put in the greenhouse in October. I bought my original plant at Trebah garden Cornwall in 1997. But I have seen it since at other nurseries occasionally.Try Google.
ps. Make sure you spell it right.

 

I found it on Google, a firm that sells
"Jungle Seeds" and it comes in many colours. Thank you. rosietu

 

Jungle Seeds, I've got their catalogue.
Its in there under the name Ipomoea indica in the plants section, the seed grown plants are annuals, which are good if you dont have space to overwinter them, but they are not so strong growing.

This is what my garden looks like a few days ago. Hope some of it surives.

 

Yeah Nathan but do they realise that. Hopefully they will. I tried to pick the hardy ones. Global warming? Whats that.?

 

No I havn't had any luck with the tuberose.
Ferraria and Tricyrtis both look pretty unusual and well worth growing. I've never tried either myself, you'll have to let us know how you get on.
Hope the tuberose does well for you, its got a really strong scent on warm summer evenings.
