Lovely, reminds me of gardens here in Southern California, but a bit more subtropical. I have grown Solandra grandiflora here and wanted to note the flowers have a coconut scent. The vining plants are good for draping over a pergola, wall or hanging from trees if, of course, you live in the right climate zone.

[@GardeningatDouentza]

Ooh,what a nice thought that coconut scent is. I must have a good sniff next time I encounter the plant ☺️

[@grannyplants1764]

Solandra are huge and gorgeous, I love them! 🌱

Lovely tropical plants. How is your bird of paradise doing?

[@GardeningatDouentza]

The one I repotted years ago is long gone. I got a new seedling one last year.

2:20 I had a few of those, which I grew from seed, but lost them last winter.

[@GardeningatDouentza]

Underwatering in the greenhouse in winter has been my downfall for Geranium maderense, unfortunately.

[@Luke-PlanesTrainsDogsnCars]

A tip in growing Geranium Maderense is NOT to remove the old leaves and stems as they support the plant in an upright position.
