The Clivias are out . . . AGAIN

While not as lovely as their full early summer glory some of the local clivias are blooming again perhaps in response to the rain and warmth?  Enjoy!

Autumn Camellias

Copyright Julie Vaux 2013
There is a particularly fine patch / group of  camellia trees near the M69 bus stop  near the motel just up the top of the hill. If you're ever using that stop while visiting relatives in nursing homes nearby do take a look at them but still keep one eye  out for that M60 buses to signal it least it whizz you!

Succulent Cuttings Available June 2013



Anyone need some cuttings to start new plants?

This plant is very healthy and I have new growth coming up where I already took off a few small branches to test them. They've taken nicely and I think this plant and another downstairs which needs repotting could be be safely and carefully pruned back. I would also consider selling both plants and others I have in exchange for cash or swapping empty pots and potting mix. 

I'm trying to reduce the size and number of plants on my balcony in case I have to move later this year or next year.
