This year I have added Densiflorum Assam Orange, Stephen and Sorung to my existing collection of Gardnerianum, Forrestii and Coccineum Tata. I love the flowers. Such a pity they only last a couple of weeks. Cannas are another favourite. I have 3 Indica's which have been flowering constantly for the past 3 months are they are still getting new flowers even in October. Pretoria and Burgandy have just started flowering - lovely orange flowers. Canna Musifolia Grande is still producing leaves. I assume he will need to be over wintered indoors? Not sure how hardy Musifolia Grande is in Southampton!! I love Gingers too.

Garden is looking STUNNING, as always! I sometimes lose enthusiasm a bit when I look out the window at our garden and just see a mass of green and sometimes brown that looks like a slightly abandoned jungle, but seeing other peoples gardens like yours always inspires and enthuses me to keep going :) Loving the photo of 'Sorung', too - looks like a lovely flower, captured beautifully. Thanks for blogging, speak to you soon!
