Another super log Ian and I shall be going to and fro through your pictures to get on board the points of difference you are making.

I have helleborus niger in flower in the garden and when my daughter arrives to give me the necessary tutorial on how to make attachments will try to send some pictures.

The weather has turned really cold for the moment and as we drove home tonight the outside thermometer on the car was registering -4Celsius - small beer I suspect for many forumists but still damn cold.

James, it is extraordinary how sometimes a small feature suddenly becomes clear and one wonders why one did not spot it before..... the flange was something I had never registered before......  :'(

Go safe in the cold!

Ian, what’s that in the background of your Narcissus albidus portrait on page 6?  A bit early for Gethyum/Solaria I suppose ???

What a great mix, and picture, of cyclamen seedlings 8)

Tony, did you not see Narcissus viridiflorus a few logs back? :o



Angie got it right first time: it is the unfolding leaf of a young Tropaeolum azureum seedling!

AND .... no doubt this trop azureum is just a chance seedling, almost a weedling, in the plunge?  For us mere mortals this would be a fine thing :D

... although I am very hopeful of flowers on Trop azureum this winter as the baby I have been raising seems to have matured.  No prizes for guessing where this little one came from ;D
