Greenhouse flowers

[ralphrmartin]

Two thumbs up, Sylvia, although I can't work out why your plants are so much later than mine when you live so far South of me!

I think it is probably the situation of my greenhouse. It is not in full sun and one side is in shade more, at least that is what I put it down to.

Wow, so stunning it looks almost artificial

It has been a good weekend in my, partially shaded, greenhouse too. This view shows 15 Schick hybrids and 2 “multihybrids” in flower this morning.

Fabulous display Sylvia.

Mine don't flower so many together. They space themselves out over June and July.
Mind you, my favourite 'Nita' which I was lucky enough to get from Mr N in 2016 has already flowered and finished for the fourth consecutive year. Very similar to the one in your fourth photo.

I bought some Echinopsis hybrids yesterday, but am looking for some particular Schicks. i have a few, and a few of Brian Fearn's from AbbeyBrook. Can you suggest a supplier?

Words cannot express the superlatives which are necessary--- that's superb

Susan Pink is "winding down" following the passing of her husband. She is pink4520 on eBay and sends out excellent plants, but unfortunately eBay bidders send prices to daft levels sometimes. Other good eBay sellers are bilsdalecactus and spikey.yorkie.

This is the same plant last year (only two flowers this year). Note the drought scorched grass!
The paler pair is on day 3, the darker pair on day 1.
When fruit is encouraged, the body tends to retain a bit of a scar, especially if mealy bugs notice the shelter! This year I shall be encouraging two 'pups' to develop.

Absolutely stunning. You've brightened my day!
