Fabulous plants Tina. I was very happy to pick up one of your sylvatica youngsters at the Stoneleigh event. My elephantipes looks like it is taking a year off. Still solid, but no growth. I suspect it is either sulking after I repotted it, or our feeble summer has fooled it into thinking it isn't ...

Re: Crevice planted trough
Near vertical ideally. And if you run them east-west over a mound you can have a south slope and a north slope for things that like a little shade.

ID please?
I appreciate this is a challenge, but would value opinions as to which label belongs with this plant? Only one of three different cuttings rooted but a dropped tray meant the labels were no longer in proximity. So all three labels have been with the plant ever since.

Portulaca eruca
I can't see a previous mention of this on the forum. From ADBLPS seed sown this spring. About ten seedlings in here. A bit leggy because I kept it in a relatively shady spot after germination and wasn't expecting flowers. Should overwinter as a small caudex apparently. Flower is about an inch in ...
