    Oh snuckers! I can't keep up. Too slow reading and typing.
    Hi Chive. Yes, mine were the tipsy pots. Partly planted up at the mo with fresh compost and a few plants. Have been waiting for warmer weather to add the rest of the greenhouse babies.

    Hi Hazel. New clemmies? Nice 😊. The colours of Rebecca don't show up properly in my pic, it's a deep red velvet with a touch of purple veining in it.

    Lockdown means I've only bought one new clem this year (is that a good thing?).
    Here she is, Little Mermaid.

    Phew. I'm done for today. Last year when handy brother put up the rebar on the garage wall he damaged (couldn't be helped) a few of my clemmies. I took lots of cuttings and I've just repotted the ten that survived and are growing away strongly. I'll have to find places for them eventually. Thing is, I have no idea which one is which so it will be a lucky dip when they all flower. I've a Rebecca clemmie Kitty. It hasn't shown any flowers yet but this is my Sugar Sweet:

    I love Little Mermaid, such a pretty colour and I think the pointy ends to the tepals are very distinctive.
    p.s. Thank you for giving me the proper identity of the sunburst in the corner of your garden Kitty, its really stunning.

    Ha ha 😄 great game LB... but what is this "spare bedroom" it features?  I have only a vague memory of such a room, way back in the mists of time.

    Have shut up the greenhouse and come in for the day, it's getting a bit nippy out there. 
    Sugar Sweet is lovely, looks so pretty and delicate. I like the shading of the colours on the opening buds.

    Sending best wishes to Chey if he's looking in xx.
