Hi all
Nev that clump of carinata looks amazing. I hope you don't mind if I save the pic and print it out. I'm going to save one of our pots to allow it to clump up in a hanging basket.

When we went up north Qld last year I bought a tim plowman x lieboniana which was a single small tube. Now I have 3 pots with 3 tubes in each and each one with a flower. Unfortunately it doesn't have a curled over top like tim plowman but it does look nice with the red flowers. I wish I had sold at least one of them last weekend when someone wanted one. Ah well next time it flowers perhaps I will be ready to let some go.

This is a quesnelia flowering at my brothers today. I wonder if it is the same as mine? If not I know where I can get one heheheh.
