Penstemon virens-
An alpine form of Embothrium coccineumThese are the first flowers of a small Embothrium - collected 2003 as a tiny sucker near Antillanca/Chile around 1350 m in the Andes.Until now I didn't dare to plant it outside.Gerd
Nice and short!I have three plants in my garden but they haven't flowered yet. They are about 5 years.A friend has a shrub in his garden which is 4m tall now and flower every year. They are from the same batch - he collected seed in Chile and I grew them and allocated seedlings!
5. Oresitrophe rupifraga - Saxifragaceae from China, acquired at the occasion of the Galanthus event at OirlichGerd
