Hi all,

Jean, hope you finally got a nice sunny day and managed to get outdoors.

Trish, good to hear from you, glad you have been enjoying yourself with family and are not ill or working too hard … we were all starting to worry about you. Love your pics.

Sue, yes, we are having lovely weather here at the moment as well. I have enjoyed some time in the garden but not as much as I would like … always seems to be something that has to be done (like housework) that stops me from getting out in the yard.

Ian, sounds like you are working too hard. Can you tell me the name of the variegated plant on the right of your flowering NOID vriesea in your pic 4, please.

Hi to Nev, Cody and Therese and everyone else dropping in.

My pics are – pics 1 & 2 – Vr Big Red, now more than a metre wide, pic 3 – neo Donna, pic 4 – Ae Purple Heart

Bye for now, Shirley
