image 5559-2 ... the Phylliopsis 'Sugar Plum' is a cutie ....look at the size of those flowers!

I think that lovely plant came from the Smethurst stable in Bury?   A beauty ...

Smart foliage class, too.... and I even agree with the judges!!  ;D

Can anyone remember if that startlingly orange Lewisia had a cultivar name? It shines out of the photos like a belisha beacon :o

Just checked my other images and that vibrant Lewisia is labelled Lewisia cotyledon 'Sunset Strain'.

The Lewisia cotyledon selections which became named as 'Sunset Strain' were originally made by Jack Drake's Inshriach Nursery in the early 1960's. Very nice indeed.

Yes, that's right, David.  Some time since I saw quite such a bright example.... a cheery reminder of days gone by marveling at the huge display of these plants at Inshriach ..... I swear you could see them in the dark  :D
