Here's a curiosity, flowering for the first time: Dombeya ianthotricha.
I bought it last August and swear that it has the same number of leaves (3!) that it had then--hasn't grown in size at all in a year. Yet it's put out these two delicate blooms. Don't know what the gold speckling is, but I was afraid the fragile buds would break off before opening. It's generally grown for its coloured foliage, apparently.
I hope at least one of my other two dombeya species will flower this year.
