Grevillea "Pink Lady"

Oh how lovely, you've just reminded me of Gran Canaria! :)

It really is one of my faves Karen! I'll have to stick it in the greenhouse soon though.

Always reminds me of NSW.

Yeah, keep it cosy Keith, you don't want to lose this baby...it's beautiful! :)

Can't seem to get a cutting to strike yet, so I'll have to pamper it a while longer.

Winter is the best bloom time for most species of Grevillea.

A few of the flowers got scorched in last nights hard frost.

Wow! How cold did it get?

I'll send you over some of our very mild weather. The night time lows here have been well above normal.

-7°c last night. Damned cold!

WOW!!!! That's damned COLD!!! It's a far cry from my morning low of 60ºF (16ºC).

No wonder why you can't grow your Schlumberger cactus outside...it would melt!

Pretty normal for us hardy souls over here!

Yes, your a hardy soul, alright! We're a bunch of cold-weather-wimps here in San Diego!

I would much prefer to be a cold weather wimp myself if I were to be honest!

Then you wouldn't want temps below 60ºF (16ºC) without freezing to death! lol! :>)

I could deal with that!

You need a house in the tropics for winter. :>)
