Re: Help with Mesem IDs
That looks very different from my plant which has no "keel" and weedy teeth!
Are hybrids a possibility? Unnatural ones presumably given the differing flowering times. Or are the plants quite variable? Mesems are a vast subject and as you can see not one I know much about.

Re: Help with Mesem IDs
Thanks, Suzanne. Yes great help. The flower colour threw me completely. Reassuring that I wasn't too far off with the Carruanthus as well!

Help with Mesem IDs
Can anyone help with IDs for these two? I've had them both for over 20 years but the labels disintegrated long ago. I think one may be Carruanthus (Poss ringens) Carruanthus ringens.JPG and the other could be a Bijlia??? Unknown Mesem1.JPG Unknown Mesem2.JPG But I'm not confident with either guess. ...

Re: Wisley Gardens Petition
Good news, but the cynic in me wonders whether this option was only proposed in order to ensure that the other option went through with minimum opposition!

Re: August 2017 - GotM - Ledebouria
They usually go for my stemless mesems, I put a ring of vaseline round the top of the pots, they don't like crossing it, but your hands get very sticky when you pick the pot up. Haven't had snails attack a Ledebouria before though.

Re: August 2017 - GotM - Ledebouria
I think it is only one per bulb, or at most one fully formed and one small leaf. It has rather nice pink flowers on some of the pictures I've seen, but as I say I've never flowered it. I bought it in leaf in a pot with the bulbs buried so on its only repotting I left them that way. All the leaves di...

Re: August 2017 - GotM - Ledebouria
Here is Ledebouria cooperi. It has never flowered but just sticks up these leaves so late in the year that I always think I've lost it!

Euphorbia i.d.
Can anyone help with an i.d. for this chap? I bought it from a garden centre only to discover that it was rotting at the base. I don't usually have much luck rooting Euphorbias but with the aid of some surgery, drying off and cat litter it recovered nicely and now has a potfull of root. The "fl...
