Rosa 'French Lace'
I got the four Abelia stumps out. Owwww.
However there is visual consolation. Aloe hardyi:
'Molineux':
The autumn blooming Aloe arborescens is finishing up.
Aloe vanbalenii will succeed it as the splash of yellow in that corner.
Aloe capitata. I'm obsessed!
Those little mops have nearly usurped, as favorites,
...the grand flowers of A. ferox...
...and A. marlothii, both just emerging.
It's been so warm we had to have the windows open all night Christmas eve, because it was hot in the house. The warmth has made the new 'Ascot' rose leaf out quickly.
Surprise! A rare offset from one of the 'Blue Glow' Agaves.
Speaking of 'Blue Glow', the first seed-leaves have emerged!

I don't know that rose French Lace, it is gorgeous. And those aloes are lovely.
ReplyDeleteI wish you' d come and get some of my stumps out. However many I get rid of there are always more to be done. Stumps! The bane of my life.

Bane of my life, too. I can hardly walk today.
DeleteSo wonderful to see your rose and aloe flowers. Glad to hear you got those stumps out. Your little Agave babies are such cutie-pies.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Alison!
DeleteSuch fun to see the first seed-leaves of the 'Blue Glow' and great the job has been done with the Abelia stumps. I admire you for your really stunning pictures, so beautiful. Your rose French Lace is a lovely beauty too!
ReplyDeleteYour photos are really beautiful too, Janneke!
DeleteI'm so impressed by your success in sprouting 'Blue Glow' seeds, as well as your diligence in tackling stumps! (I'm afraid I always call for my husband's help on stumps.) I hope you're enjoying our unseasonably warm weather. I'm off to tackle my rose bushes.
ReplyDeleteI'm amazed the seeds sprouted, absolutely amazed. Now I am terrified I will kill them. It's always something...
DeleteGood luck with the roses!
Seeing seeds sprout is always a thrill. :o) Love those roses! Mine are dormant sticks.
ReplyDeleteSeeds: the agony and the ecstasy, the agony and the ecstasy.
