Thank you everyone - you are magnificent.
First time ever flowering in the garden - another of Bron's gifts. TROPICAL HEATWAVE.
I am a sucker for orange and yellow. I know people of the Northern Hemisphere think such colours are common because these hues run wild. But they are fetching down here and unfamiliar.
Two clumps of SPACECOAST RUFFLES up and running today.

The gladies are coming. Run away.
It is interesting, Donald, about the first blooms. I suppose it is like learning to drive or something. The gears don't go into place easily but with a bit of practice you get it right it is easy sailing from then on.
(added later: was that a mixed metaphor?)
