Double Hellebore

I think My Ajuga is Confussed 2 Spritz ? Iv just loaded a Pic of 1 in Flower !

This is lovely B. :~))
My phlox are confused to, they have come into bloom again!

Funny old summer, isn't it!

Have you been away B.?

Didn't you even notice, Ian? Sob, sob.

I did notice, thats why I asked. I was looking for you yesterday. :~(

Awwwww.....thanks. Yes, we had a week's holiday - the first for 3 years!! :-))

O Spritz iv been away 2 & id of noticed if ud dissapeared ,

Anywhere nice? Isn't that a daft question? of course it was nice or you wouldn't have gone.........

Jacque - I guessed from your photo! I hope you had a great time! Thanks...:-))

Ian - we went to Italy, to Lake Maggiore, and yes, it was MORE than nice, thanks! Watch out for flying blogs overhead!!! lol.

Oooooh I can't wait........ :~))

Working on the first one at the moment - too tired to do much else! Flight delayed, long awful queues, pushed and shoved by a complete football team and hangers on......grrrrrr.....

OMG dont u just hate Flight delays :( ours was delayed going & coming :(

Beautiful Hellebore...........

Mine flowered in July, could not believe it.

Thanks, Milky!

Did you have to queue up for ages and ages through a sort of roped-off maze, Jacque??

Weird.

The flower or the maze, Toto?

Definitely the flower, or at least it's decision to flower now.

I know - I just wonder what it'll be doing in Feb/March when it should be in flower!!

Lovely poor mis-guided flower.

Very pretty love the speckles on it. Perhaps it will flower again in February.

I do hope so!! :-)

Its lovely Spritz, mine are still not flowering no matter what time of the year it is........

Nor should they be! Mind you, I've got one which is now almost 4 years old - it hasn't produced a single flower..yet...I have given it a stern talking-to!

Wont give up on mine yet then Spritz,I`ve tried talking to them but obviously using wrong language. Have you ever grown them from seed?..I have bought a packet and it states germination can take up to 18mths so I`m still going to have a long wait..........Patience is a virtue so they say.........

No - you obviously have a lot more patience than I have! I have bought baby ones, though, last spring, and they have grown really well - I'm hoping for flowers this time from them - they're certainly big enough now!

How strange! Wonder what it will do next year?

Me too!
