Canna 'Cleopatra'

Stunning !

Thank you TT :)
The colour reminds me of dark chocolate or marble cake ;-)
Yummy~~~

Wow this is gorgeous Tommymoo, lost all my cannas last winter :-(

Sorry to hear that Simbad :(
But you've got the beautiful Mandevilla!!!
Mine (pink) is completely dead now :-( When I took out the plant from the pot, I found loads of white fat larvae!!! It was just disgusting!!!!!!!! They ate all the roots!!!! I hate you, bxggers!!!!!

Oh b****r Tommymoo, vine weevil? must check mine as did have a few plants with larva last year.
Can't believe how well that Mandevillas doing,lots of flowers open, is a gorgeous colour.

Maybe vine weevil? Or beetle or stag beetle's larva. Anyway, that was really a bad luck. Glad to hear yours are doing very well. I'm really envious!!! My white Mandevillas got sunburned (some leaves turned brown) , but still, it's doing okay.. but... I loved the pink one more... :(

My white one hasn't flowered yet, although has gone a bit mad,twined round all its supports and noticed today its attached itself to a nearby rose bush,lol.

Clever one!! It takes care of itself!!! LOL!!!

I have one of these i thought it was a one of as i have never seen one like this before.Now i know the name .When it flowered was it half red and half yellow ??

I think we have the same one, Mushybanna (maybe we bought it from the same garden centre!! =). The flowers are half red/dark orange and half yellow (spotted). Please check out my photos of the flowers when you have the time; they are on the page (?) 5.
