Plant of the Day

Sunday 18 May 2025

Creating a pool of purple flowers in this old glasshouse was Pericallis × hybrida (florist's cineraria). This tender, clump-forming perennial is most frequently grown as an annual, producing clusters of daisy-like flowers in a range of colours including red, pink, purple, blue and white.

The pink hydrangea seems to have rubbed off on its senetti (Pericallis) neighbour in the conservatory. They are said to share many overlapping growing conditions and are therefore frequently seen planted together.

Third Day Of Spring

I was photographing the bee but the cherry bark is what catches the eye: 

We had a group of cedar waxwings migrate through. Unfortunately, this was as close as I was able to get: 

We went out to Plot 420 to do some more flower planting. The yellow flowers are Leopard’s Bane. The purple & white flowers are pericallis: 

We also planted some lantana & sowed more wild flower seeds: 

The county hasn’t turned the water on at the garden yet so we brought 4 containers of water from home so we could water everything in: 

Those “stones” are busted up concrete that we found on the curb yesterday at a home undergoing some renovation: 

Some storm clouds had rolled in by the time we were leaving. We’re supposed to get some rain & gnarly winds tomorrow:
