Hildewinteras

Post by Sylvia »

Three pictures of my Hildewinteras flowering today. Humkes li lo fee flowered for the first time this morning. it started last night so was up at the crack of dawn to take a picture. I love these plants as they flower throughout the growing season so something always in flower. Some are upright which is nice as they don't take up so much room and some are branching so take up more room and need hanging baskets.

Lovely, Sylvia. I especially like the flower colour of the first plant photo.

Hi Rod, that is one of my favourites it is only about 8" tall and flowers quite prolifically.
