Trying to add a couple of pics. from my tablet. Seems to have worked but will have to alter the size of the others somehow as they're too big! Hellebores complete with snail & primroses out now. Attachments:

A few more, not very good photos as taken on a tablet & cropped. Pretty yellow hellebore & snowdrops, I seem to have just one double out at the moment. |

Lovely pics SueA but couldn't you put them on in the usual way, they're a bit small and it's such a faff clicking on them and viewing them separately

Thanks, no I can't put the photos on the usual way at the moment Eli as I usually use my laptop which is on the blink, it needs new drivers for graphics but is so old I can't find any so am thinking of getting a new one. I'm having to take photos on my phone & tablet at the moment as my camera & sd card only links to the laptop & for some reason the only way I can put images on from the tablet at the moment is by using the 'add attachment' button which limits the size & number you can put on. |

Oh, I see SueA, I hope you can get a new laptop soon. It will be worth it, I got one year before last and it's much better, I hope to upgrade it to Windows 11 when I can get someone to help me.

I also have some iris in flower. Iris Lazica and Iris unguicularis 'Peloponnese now'.   This old Cyclamen coum is doing very well. It must be at least 10 years old.  A few years back we acquired a stump and this paler Cyclamen is doing well too.  |

lovely seaburn I've found my lazica isn't flowering too well this year, I'm wondering if the drought last year has anything to do with it |

They are wonderful balc2, My single Clivia is flowering now but has few flowers on the head. I'll show a photo tomorrow.

Clivia but it only has a few flowers on the stem ...
Second flower on indoor Hyacinth ...
Is this a new flowering shoot on my Orchid ? I've never had any success with them in the past.

Great to see your Clivia in flower, Eli! Almost all the individual flowers have finished opening on my two bulbs & what a sight they are! After I investigated a little on the internet I discovered that if I treat them in the same way I do with my Amaryllis; keeping them dry & cold for a few months towards the end of the year, then they will flower every year! I'm not sure but I think they like to be a bit potbound as well. As I repotted them in bigger pots they may not flower again next year even if I do keep the dry & cold for 3 months. Your plant is lovely even if it hasn't got many flowers. 😃 |
