Tamarix ramosissima

is this one of the new buy's Amy

Yes Eileen . we bought it at the weekend from a centre that had 15% off everything .... I have to decide where it's going in now !

Love this plant very much! Great choice, Amy!

Love tamarix Amy, always think they look like pink smoke when they flower, I have one too don't know variety though a cheapy buy from wilko's few years ago :-)

I love this plant. It used to grow in the hospital where I worked and each year I looked forward to the pink plumes - lovely.

Lovely plant looking forward to seeing it later in the year....

Thanks girls .. i'm looking forward to it having those lovely pink plumes , this is Janey's fault as I saw a pic. in her garden and thought how nice it looked ... :o))

lovely name so guessing its a lovely plant to, look forward to seeing it amy :o))

Thanks San.. I'm still trying to decide where to put it ;o)

Great buy... I love the one we inherited, but I think it might have to be replaced soon.

Why is that Barbara , do they grow old and straggley or stop producing flowers ?

We grew this one and the other variety in the midlands, but we have lost one and the other looks as if it is on its way out, think it was too small to stand up to this awful winter, I love them, I think Janey? has one.......

These are very pretty.

It was because I saw Janeys that I decided to get one Angela , Thanks Hywel I hope mine will be as pretty as Janeys ........

Yours is bigger than the one we had from Parkers, it was a stick (honestly) I bought two and they were both just sticks, one died and they replaced it with another stick, if it survives it will be a miracle!! if not I will buy a bigger stick lol

LOL.. I hope it survives for you Angela ...

As they say it has two chances......
