I am wondering what this plant is? I have a nice picture of the blossom and want to ID it for the Database

Marilyn will you add the new bloom photo to this thread, along with a photo of the leaves that belong to this bloom?

Here goes again

The plant as found



If this doen't work, I may,, may ,, may ,, be able to go back tomorrow with gloves and long sleeves to check further. Bees are rampant.

Could this be one of the Helianthemum? http://www.google.com/search?q...

You've done it Helianthemum ‘Fireball’

It is exactly it.

Thanks

T& M sells plugs, Maybe they also sell seeds. It is just so pretty.

Wonder if it will grow in a pot?

Helianthemum for sure but am now thinking Cerise Queen is the cultivar.

How do I know for sure?

One nursery has the picture as Fireball, another as Cerise Queeen. I have looked at several now and am still not sure.

Edit to say I now believe to be Cerise Queen. I have ordered from Amazon so, will have my wishes fulfilled.

Problem is I don't know where I can plant it .... hee hee

Good going Marilyn. I love the Helianthemums. I have a wonderful orange flowered one named 'Ben Nevis'.


It is blooming right now.

I ordered and have just gotten three of the Cerise Queen. Guess it will be next year before I know for sure

Can't wait to see them in bloom next year.

Here is what the packages and plants from Hirt's look like. They were ordered on the Amazon.com website



Blurry but I think you can read it

They look like nice healthy plants Marilyn. They should do very well for you. Next year you will have those lovely blooms.

Can't wait to see them.
