Sparaxis


Sparaxis (Sparaxis)

This gave me a surprise today - I planted Sparaxis some years ago, and didn't lift them. None have appeared since until now - and there it was.

Was going to grow these, but not really sure I like them, sorry.

The other colours were 'much' prettier, Dd. This one is a bit 'in your face' compared with the others.

I'm sure it was...unique indeed!

Strange that it appeared like that, though, when all the others must have died.

I love it!...:>)

Do you? I'm not sure about the colours...I liked some of the others better.

Did you take them out for the winter, Toto?

No I left them in the ground.

I wonder why I've only got one left then? The books tell me that they're tender...and need to be lifted! (guess who didn't!)
