This is very out of character for me as I garden mainly for interesting foliage but this week I do have several beautiful flowers.

The first one is Francoa sonchifolia and we were saying this morning re our garden that when the masses of biennial Geranium palmatums are finished we’re going to need a few things to fill the gaps; that would be perfect, it’s been on my wanted list a long time. As luck would have it, I have to go to the garden centre for compost tomorrow or Monday, I’ll look out for one. That’s as happy a Trachelopspermum as I’ve seen in this country too, the scent must be almost overpowering in your walled in space.

Thank you Jim. It is a great plant, flowers all summer and has put up with some neglect over the years.
And yes the smell of the Trachelopspermum is amazing esoecially late evening when l am snail hunting.
