Wow Peter,

What an amazing colour in a lily, not a colour one would expect at all. I can understand how it is your favourite. Great plant.

Today´s favourite is very beautiful but a little smelly, Dracunculus muscivorus. I had to take it out of the greenhouse to show it to all my visitors. I think the bluebottles liked it more than the pensioner group.

Hi Peter, I am very pleased that you have joined us on the forum it is great to see more of your fantastic plants.
What about a few general pictures of your beds so we can see how they are flowering this year.
Our Lilium souliei has no flowers this year. It is a single plant that we raised from a seed collection and although it has flowered a number of times it has never set seed,  I hope you have better luck Peter.

Some pictures from the garden, taken the last week. Everything is 2-3 weeks earlier than normal.
