Garden pictures from the weekend

First-flowering of a seedling poker, grown as Kniphofia ichopensis, but certainly a hybrid.

Argyranthemum 'Jamaica Primrose' (with Calamagrostis 'Overdam' behind). This is the clone maintained and distributed by Pam Schwerdt and Sibylle Kreutzberger: it is much superior to the clone currently offered commercially, being more compact and much more floriferous, but its willingness to flower makes it difficult to find vegetative cutting material from the plants.

Clematis brevicaudata and Viburnum opulus 'Xanthocarpa'.

Impatiens kilimanjari subsp. kilimanjari

Comma on Aster x frikartii 'Monch'

  1. That Knip is precociously prolific (10 stems!) for an inaugural bloom!
