Very nice plants, Oleg!

Congrats with your flowering Paris japonica, manicbotanic! Then I should expect flowers on mine next year!

Here Glaucidium palmatum is at its best now.

Some lovely things about just now.

Luit - the Laythrus look great in a mass planting.

The Phlox looks good too. I see you call it 'Daniel's' Cushion which is what I bought mine as but I kept seeing it as 'McDaniels Cushion' so changed it. I wonder if the Scots are trying to claim it and added the Mc. Or are they two different plants?

Three years ago I gave a seedling from my Trillium chloropetalum 'Rubrum' to a friend of mine. My plant flowers by those well known large, deep red-brown flowers. My friend have sent me recently picture of the first flower of my seedling. I was pretty surprized by its colour. I don't know if its colour is a result of a colour variability of the species, or a result of my T.luteum growing nearby. In every case, I should like to have it in my garden, too.
