Dr Ruppel , still going at the back of the arch

thats lovely, its a bit secretive in the shadows!!

Well it got a star location on my arch, back then I didnt have many so thought it would do better but its about the same as last year so will swap it for next year. I think it'd like full sun. But its dont ok sort of

That's not Dr Rupple Stevie ... or is it? Dr rupple looks like nelly moser... :/ It is nice though.

looks like its hiding rather than looking for the sun?

had this before Pimper, it IS dr rupple, its quite dark to start off but nelly mosser has more of a central strip and the outside has a lighter whiter pinkish outside, definatley maybe ; )

I wonder if there will ever be a Stevie or a Terrible Clem? if you managed that then you might have won the clem wars??

well maybe, sort of............ definitely, hey are you up for a solstice bash tomorrow...have to leave at 2.30 am before the sun rises...........Stonehenge, Avebury..glastonbury?

oh lulu, i have to go to work :-(

shucks......pity.....I should be too!!

It looks very dark.. mind you I have not had one single Clem flower here in almost four years, so I may have forgot. :)

we shall have to do a different version ~ sunset maybe????

Lulu would love to but not sure I could rise at 2.30am!! ans hey isnt the solstice time at night (23:09 ; ).
looking at the Stonehenge EH webiste they seem to imply that its for sunset and sunrise on t 21st

Pimper how come, do the dark satanic mills of madchester overshadow your garden??

looking at this photo again, i do like the way the light is hitting the centre ~ most appropriate for solstice!!

we could all take a photo at 23.09 ????

I don't Know Stevie..I am all in pots like yours so they should in theory grow but they don't.

aha, I didn't check.there's a hooley going on at Glastonbury tomorrow at noon, so thought the mid summer was tomorrow..........

Pimper, last year I didn't use trays and sods law of course had that long stretch without any rain!! and noticed not very much nice growth. This year used trays and of course it pours down, but I think its better than not using trays. Although my front faces s/sw so gets full sun.

what kind of Hooley loos?

You seem to have so many truly beautiful flowers. This is so lovely.

Thank you Wildrose, yes lulu is always saying this as well!

Have to admit - this is very good picture Stevie:)
