    ..^that's nice [the Clerodendrum], never grown that one.  Before finishing B's just like to mention Brunnera 'Jack Frost' - don't have a photo but it's a lovely forget me not type plant for shade areas, if anyone is interested in that...

    on to C's... where we have lots to choose from...

  • Clematis and cornflower are the only c's I can think of at the moment. Both already been mentioned so I will have to think again

    Nice Minuet salino. I've got one of those and it's never looked as good as that

    You look away from B and suddenly it's C!  Anyway, I'm sharing bats if that's OK, I love bats. And beech trees.

    Salino fab. C pics. Cistus are lovely I think. And clematis are so varied. My favourite is Clem Armandii which has flowered profusely this year but, with no warm weather, has not released huge wafts of scent as it did last year.

    Ooh, nutcutlet, I've recently acquired a Clerodendron - it was recommended as a chicken-friendly plant. Hasn't made it out of the pot yet image
