    I'm so pleased that my Tricyrtis Hirta has finally decided to bloom from me. I think it looks like some sort of exotic orchid. :-D

    Here's a piccie I took this afternoon. Plenty more buds to come. :D

    That is beautiful Eileen! I've never seen those before. I'd love to see another shot when more of those buds open.

    Mine have decided not to bloom this year, so I'm glad you're sharing yours, Eileen. They are lovely.

    Wow! What a beauty :) My thumb is totally 'brown'. Use to have a houseful of plants.Over watered and ended up with gnats and DH didn't like that! Never been one to have much outside. Those that I did have, ended up with 'bugs' eating them. So I gave up :'(
    Hats off to all of you that are so knowledgeable and talented.
