    I love Bird of Paradise! Maybe one day I'll get one, even if I have to bring it indoors during winter.

    Hi Theodoros,
    what a vast amount of plants you have in bloom just now,..all very interesting,..i would like to have most of them in my garden,..alas our weather would devastate them come winter,..i was stationed in Cyprus in the 1960's and had a small garden while there,..the climate would be similar to yours.

    I don't think I could wait 3 years to see a bloom from something I started from seed. You have great patience! :stew2:

    Γεια ΘεόδωÏ?ος, .. Μου άÏ?εσε πολÏ? που σε ΚÏ?Ï€Ï?ος, .. i τοποθετήθηκε εκεί με την ΕιÏ?ηνευτική ΔÏ?ναμη του ΟΗΕ και σε όλες ήμουν εκεί για 2 χÏ?όνια.

    Είμαι απολαμβάνοντας τις εικόνες των φυτών σας, όπως είναι όλοι οι άλλοι, .. κÏ?ατήσει απόσπαση, .. έχετε ένα δώÏ?ο με τα φυτά.

    We used pittosporum in the flower shop all the time, I would crush the leaves just to smell them. The color of those poppies is just stunning. I also like the weird one that's all ruffly (or however it is described) is that normal or an anomaly?

    WOW... we have the same taste!
    I have some really really small seedlings of Aristolochia gigantea, fimbriata and kewensis but they are like I said SO SMALL... like not growing at all. Maybe this summer they will grow a bit.

    And also that Tweedia... I have a few small plants. Same. Small. Can't wait to have blooms on them!
