Here's a few pretties in bloom right now. water hyacinth sweetly fragrant peruvian daffodil a beautiful blue torenia a tropical hibiscus
Wow Bethie those are beautiful pics!!! Thanks for sharing them with us!!! I love them all but the Hibiscus bloom is very beautiful!! It looks like tissue paper!!!
Oh I feel a trip to a garden centre coming on after seeing that beautiful water hyacinth. I also love the Peruvian daffodil!!! I wonder if Ian's wallet can stand the strain.
Simply wonderful. The Peruvian Daffodil looks very interesting, it looks delicate. Can you tell us something about it Bethie?
Beautiful - I also would like more information on the peruvian daffodil. Is is something that would grow here in the cold north?
Beautiful pics Bethie, I love the color of the torenia, I have never seen that color. The water hyacinth is wonderful.
I'm so envious. I've run out of room for gardens and NEW and EXCITING plants like Peruvian daffodils. Oh,I am gonna go out of my mind if you keep putting up these pictures! I suppose I could get rid of the sheep and horses and use the pasture - oh crap! what am I thinking? Maybe I really have lost my mind! muddy
Polly I read that they are hardy in zones 8 to 10 I just had to do some research after I saw that photo.
The Peruvian Daffodil (chymenocallis narcissiflora) is a large bulb. Plant when weather is warm. Can be grown in cold climates-just lift the bulb like you do a tuberose. Sweetly fragrant and hummingbirds like them also.
