Hardy Tropicals UK

Cheers guys.

I like the fact that the photos make the garen a lot bigger than it is.

Most plants in the arid bed are in pots for quick removal come winter to the greenhouse. I lost my agaves last year so taking more care this year.

Super looking Dicksonia antarctica Kris...and garden....

New pics of flowers that are out in my garden at the moment. The Tree lilies have really come on a lot this year reaching over 6 foot tall and smell gorgeous.

Oh gee,

That Passion Flower is awsome. I bought seed from Ebay then gave it away..shucks

If I dig deep enough I should find a pack in my seed tin.

Just ordered an electric seed prop so an early start to my seeds.

They are all nice flowers but the Passion flower.. ))))

Your garden looks very good Kris.

You certainly have a eye for colour mate

Cheers Kata and Adam for the comments.

The passion flower has got through the last two winters with no problems, very little die-back. In fact this year it has flowered better than ever and covered a much bigger area. A very easy hardy tropical!

So a passion flower is a climber..yes Kris?

Hmm!

Yes Kata, a climber. Mine covers a trellis and a Dicksonia antarctica

Please, tell me what a Dicksonia antarctica is.

I keep seeing it around the forum.

I believe it stands for Dicksonia Antartica (tree fern) Kata. regards Rich.

very nice kris, plenty of colour there. seeing your pics makes me realise how little colour there is in my garden.


cheers

Updated pic of my small patch

Great stuff Kris!

All those pots must take some watering when it's hot and dry.

final ones...for now
