                  Orange Roses are my favourite. I don't recall ever seeing an orange Geum. At the moment I am liking orange and pink together but finding it difficult to find orange except Lantana.

                    The Geum is 'Mai Tai' - I absolutely love it and think I'll get a few more.

                            I went out to check things after the unexpected blessing of rain and everything is so fresh and vibrant (mostly green here) but I was delighted to see the Yellow Beloperone guttata (Justicia brandegeeana) Shrimp Plant is really taking off ... next to my beautiful Pink Hibiscus.

                            This morning my girlfriend in Bideford (North Devon) sent me this picture of her Cordyline australis this morning next to her Akebia quinata Chocolate Vine. She said the scent fills their garden.

                              I like this Pansy that is flowering at the moment. Looks like a "Mario Brothers" strain!
