Sunnymeade looks wonderful.  I so want a moon gate like that stone one.
Cheers.

Nice, Fermi.  Good to see the Rhodphiala is doing well for you.  Do you grow any other varieties?
Cheers.

Fermi all our Calostemmas are in seed now and the Rhodophiala bifida have now gone over but it was a lovely surprise when it flowered. The lilac Colchicum are in flower though as are the Urgineas and some small yellow Colchicums I think.
