Congrats Cliff, it must take a lot out of you! ;D
Nice pics too.

Pudsey was again a brilliant venue and the 'Pig' competiton - with 22 contestants - well up to snuff.

Well done Carol. :D

My favourite Ourisia, and I am very taken with Wahlenbergia stricta. If anyone wants to know, the pic in the 2nd batch with the first prize, is what I used to have as Dobrowskya tenella though I also have seen it as Dombrowskya. It may have been reclassified as Lobelia. It is a South African and I found it beautiful but quite tender. From the foliage and buds it is easy to see the campanula relationship between it and the wahlenbergia. :)

Hearty congtatulations Cliff and to the parents as well. They're doing (or have done) the work, after all. ;D And remember that girls play rugby nowadays.

It's one of Cecilia Coller's plants (well, a large proportion of the plants on the show bench were) and she calls it Monopsis unidentata, although I think it did used to be Lobelia.

Great pics of some very interesting plants, Cliff, thanks for posting!

Did anyone catch what the label said on the yellow Cremanthodium, please?
