Pretty arrangement.
What are the plants with the reddish leaves ?

12 Jul, 2009

 

I was wondering the same thing - they look like canna leaves.

12 Jul, 2009

 

Is that orangey flower part of the same plants ?

12 Jul, 2009

 

I think so TT - that's why I thought maybe they're cannas.

12 Jul, 2009

 

Yes.... It's so exciting waiting for Delonix to tell us. Lol..

Lol!! Maybe we've worked it out - clever us or not?

12 Jul, 2009

Bernieh, Terratoonie:

You're correct it's Canna. LOL!

......I'm waiting for the Sausage Trees ! :o)

Ha - you're so right TT! Roll on sausage tree!

12 Jul, 2009

Terratoonie:

:o) Lol...
Do Sausage Trees grow well in the UK ?
I noticed one on a member's garden list....

Terratoonie:

Highly unlikely...they are from the ultra-tropical areas of
Africa...sausage trees cannot be grown in many of
the canyon areas of in-land San Diego. They are tender to the slightest frost and cannot even tolerate protracted cool temps. without damage or death of the tree.
