This is one of the larger Celmisia, probably C. semicordata, a New Zealand plant. This looks to be a very healthy specimen.

thanks, I got this from my neighbour she is 91years old and has had this plant for many years but could not name it ,she will be so happy.

So, do you know how old the plant is, Khayla?

Gosh, is it hardy in Scotland?

Oh yes, Ba, it is widely grown. We grow it up here, but not as nicely as this plant. It particularly likes the damper climate.

hi ,my neighbour has had this plant for 25 years and she got it from a friend who also got it from a friend, so it has been going for a long time. I got it from her 2 years ago so I'm keeping fingers crossed that it keeps strong.

I don't know just how long these Celmisia can live, Khayla, but it is a long time, as you have shown. I might be tempted to collect and sow a few seeds this year, just in case.

You must put a photo on again when it's in flower.
