I need an please

Post by KeithG »

I bought this at the village plant sale last May and I seem to remember it putting out yellow 'tubular' flowers although I cannot find any photos.
It grows rapidly though as it is at least twice as big as it was. One pound coin for scale............

Looks right other than the colour. Might be a freak, or might be due to very high light although I've never seen them anything other then strong green.

Is that strange looking one on a graft? It definitely looks wrong to be submammulosus.

As his nursery's in Paraguay you might need to factor in a bit more heat stress than if it were in the UK. ;)
