Latest and last addition for this season...

Got them on Thursday this week,but was to busy to boast...:)  
   Went to knitting and stitching show in Dublin(my an other hobby-knitting/crocheting ) then Halloweens with all trick and treating :) Very busy holidays i say.
  So my latest addition are Pelargoniu caffrum and P.browkeri,they were on my 'must have' .I was looking for seeds of them for ages,got caffrum seeds,but didn't get any seedling,,i think was bit to hot,so at end decided that i better just order plants.And there they are :

Some seeds germinated what i sowed 2 weeks ago,Weather still warm,good for me.
 Have very good week you all!
  p.s. some photos of pelargoniums from Helen Dillon's  garden,glasshouse(my favorite place),if you plan trip to Ireland next summer,visit it,you won't be sorry at all.

Back home.

Tidy up time.

Busy in polytunnel last couple weeks,cleaning,moving plants form glasshouse,making room for tender plants who were all summer in pots outside,some were planted in ground too.They are still there,weather still is very mild for autumn in Ireland,feels like this time it is on my side.

  Some of little seedlings of species pelargoniums woke up after summer dormancy,nice,i was afraid that they won't ,because they were so small then.

There some photos of this year sowed plants.

 Pelargonium dolomiticum,,yesterdays discovery,,it growing flower stem :)

 Pelargonium crithmifolium.

 Pelargonium incrassatum

 Pelargonium campestre

 And pelargonium australe,very fragile leaves,i was re potting it and broke off couple of them.

Bridal Pelargonium / Nanny

Got this one from Sweden,original name in Swedish would be Bròllopspelargon/Nanny,,i was looking but didn't find much info about it,,so there is photos.It looks great at young age,i think next year it will be even posher :)

  Started big cleanup in polytunnel,must make room for my 'girls' from glasshouse.

'Sweet Jess'

At long last it shows me how it looks.Got cutting in May this year,had to re root it because it had problems(had problems with lots of cuttings from that order),,glad it worked and now my small plant is in flower.Love pattern on leaves,nice one.

'Sarah Hunt'

Little beauty what I manage order from Fir trees nursery before they close down.At beginning flowers look bit different,but now i got healthy flowering.Must share,because it is really,really nice,,i love it!

'Dovepoint'

I just adore this pelargonium,so now it is my kitchen,and i can look at it every time when i pass it,,actually i would love to move in all my pelargoniums,,but i can't,not so much room on windowsills :)

'ERA'S Andrea Sofie'

Was away for week,and then an other week bit more without internet(hard life) but now i'm back.
  One of nice double zonals,what i got from Sweden is 'ERA'S Andrea Sofie',very girlish and delicate i think :)

'Dudless Well'

I want to show one more miniature zonal pelargonium with speckled petals,,,little gorgeous,love it!

'Santa Maria Centennial'

Beautify,beautiful ivy hybrid pelargonium.Saw photos of it somewhere on web,,and thought,,i must get it,,and found it at Sutarves nursery.First flowering,but already so beautiful.

'Fandango'

Lovely bright stellar pelargonium.Good flowering too,,not lazy at all :)

'Silver Dawn'

Miniature fancy leaved stellar pelargonium.I love leaves,but not so fancy about flowering,,not proportional to plant it self..to big flower heads small plant,maybe next year will be better.
p.s. sorry for misleading,,proper name to this pelargoniums is 'Silver Dawn'  not 'Silver Down'
