Hi Janet

Hahahahahaha, you noticed i was sweet talking Lauri............... awwwwww
The weather is ok, i don't mind this wet warm stuff, its good for the plants.
Thank you for the congrats.............

How did I get Elegance.................. the same way i have The Prince and no-one else does..... The guy that grew them sent me a little piece and then lost all his original plant.
The Prince was found by David Fenwick, he sent me some and another guy, both of them lost their plants and i still have mine alive. Thats how i have it and no one else does.

The Glads sound promising.................. shame about the flower spike on the Dalenii. My Dalenii Apricot one is growing mad again this year, as are the papillio.

Your Crocosmia................ if it only has a single rib, then its either a Pottsii or a x crocosmiiflora hybrid. Does it have trumpet shaped flowers????? If it does it will be a Pottsii.
Hope it turns out to be something really cool......................

This plant is Beth Chatto
