Day out second stop!

Post by charlie »

After leaving Pan Global we headed for Spetchley to drop off some climbers and have a look around, near Worcester I always find something catches my eye here.
The T.Rex is miles further ahead than mine which just goes to show the value of a bit of spring and summer warmth.

My one of these has been a disappointment, grows well but seldom flowers

Not many gardens have Iris beds these days

Since we had just been discussing Rogerisia (see I am getting the hang of plurals and 's!!) I thought the leaves of this clump looked good so took it's picture only to discover on getting home mine are now nearly as large!

I find them a bit OTT but there is no denying their beauty

Finally a question, does anyone know which Lonicera this is? I can tell you its not x brownii, sempervirens, x tellmaniana, pilosa, or Mandarin. it most looks like a good named form of x tellmaniana but I can't find any that look like it.

Not good form to answer your own questions but after abit of research the Lonicera looksas if it may be Lonicera ciliosa, It was very spectacular, I wonder why we don't see it more often? I will ask on GOTE there are a few NW American posters on there
