My goodnes that is huge Pollie!!!!, beautiful :-)
All but finished here do have a few buds of 'Eight Miles High' looks like I may even get a few teeth on the flowers,fingers crossed, a few are getting ready to rebloom though.
Seeing all your pots here reminds me of round the side of our house, the daylily seedlings grown from BHHS are doing so well some are in 1 and 2 litre pots already, must be all the rain they've loved,think B & Q are wondering what I'm doing with all the compost I'm buying,lol.

"All those pots" are my imports for this year. Bad Pollie!! It has been a really weird season, stopped so suddenly and didn't get to see beginning because of torrential rain. Nice to see some rebloom. We have about 1500 seedlings still although we have sold quite a few and binned lots. The pods are mainly empty which is a real shame. Ah well.

I am loving it and it is still blooming.

Simbad, we have been pretty ruthless with the throwing out although there need to be a lot more yet. It is really hard work doing maintenance on things which may just get thrown away.

We have a large number of Indian Giver x Black Ice seedlings which are all very pretty but we can't keep them all, some movement but wonderful Black Ice colour. Otherwise most of them aren't big enough to split. We are looking at a Victorian Ribbons x Starman's Quest seedling which we will probably put in the catalogue too in the Spring. We have just got paypal now, I just have to work out how to use it, technotwit.
