Budding.

  Oh,,so long winter and spring coming so slowly.Nights still cold and try to cover my plants in polytunnel every night.Last electricity bill was so big,that i thought i will have to move out until ''storm'' at home will be over :) But thanks goodness i didn't have to.
  So whats new...sowed some pelargoniums,ordered some seeds of species,ordered new pelargonium hybrids.Took some cuttings.
  But most exciting news are that some  of my pelargoniums are budding,and some of them will flower for me for first time.Like Pelargonium cotyledonis,,sowed in begging of 2013.


On other happy for me discovery was week ago on Zonartic ''Lara Marjorie'' and Unicorn zonartic ''Hot Butter'',,yeah,,they have small buds :)Both come form www.sutarve.se last year.

Have a good gardening year you all !
Greetings from Ireland!

  1. Hi Liga - nice to see you back! My two P.cotyledonis don't lose all their leaves - just a few go brown and drop before flowering. I have the usual one and also P.cotyledonis "Ventnor",which has yet to flower for me.

    1. Thanks Gwen! It started to lose leaves in January,,i think because they all are in polytunnel,and January went cold,they just went dormant.
      I have 'Ventnor ' form grown from seed,sowed last year,,still babies.But i didn't see much difference between leaves yet.
