| A SOUTH AFRICAN FIRE LILY, A CYRTANTHUS ELATUS CROSS, NOW FULLY OPEN, LOOKS EVEN NICER THAN IT DID TWO WEEKS AGO. IT VIRTUALLY GLOWS ON AN OVERCAST NOVEMBER DAY. |
 |
| THE GREENHOUSE BED IS NOW CLEANED OUT AND RAKED ( BANANA’S AND NICOTIANA WERE HERE), NOW, I THINK I WILL DISPLAY BONSAI HERE. STILL NEED TO FIND SOMETHING BETTER THAN CONCRETE BLOCKS. |
 |
| ROSEMARY PLEACHED HEDGE BEING TRAINED IN A WINDOW BOX, NOW GETTING READY TO BE MOVED INTO THE GREENHOUSE FOR THE WINTER. |
 |
| IN THE GREENHOUSE, ROMULEA AND OTHER SMALL SOUTH AFRICAN BULBS ARE MOVED TO AN UPPER BENCH, CLOSER TO THE GLASS TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE AUTUMN SUNSHIINE. |
Your Fire Lily is absolutely stunning, Matt. What a wonderful gift from nature on gloomy Autumn days!
I must have one (or a dozen) of those African Fire Lilies. I've never seen them in the shops, or noticed them in peoples gardens, but they should grow like weeds around here. I just wish these bulbs would bloom more than once…
