But of course, Diane. :grin: :grin: Just testing if anybody can tell what it is from the photograph, poor that it is. Also the flowers are just passing their best.

Adromischus are lovely plants but I find impossible to identify, even with flowers.

Unless you have some quite distinctive (looks wise) species (in most cases) only our valuable member under the nick Apicra could help with ID :)

You're welcome Chris. Although it's a bit out of date there's nothing else devoted to Adromischus and I'm happy it's now available to all.

I have “the book” as hard copy and it’s good to know it is avaialable as PDF too. Don’t think my particular plant features. A great volume too Chris. My records show it as ADH1106 via your good self via Lyndsey Deaves six years ago, bless her.
