Don’t ask why I was up at Sunrise on Monday!
(Carly didnt want to join me for a McDonalds breakfast lol)
we grew these by trimming off the laterals of established plants!
Here is the Gardening Australia Fact Sheet

They are now flowering!!
I found an awesome Red Chinese Lantern Tree growing in roadside garden
Mum struggles to propagate the Red ones so im hoping these will take off so we can share
Here they are all planted out. Used my own propagation mix, mostly cow poo and compost.
hope they work out.
Mum makes awesome ‘twisted plants’ she takes 3 or 4 different colours of these and plaits them into a standard… like this one https://www.jparkers.co.uk/plant-0001292/abutilon-tricolour-p12/
I’m determined to beat her, and create a 5 colour variety!
Needs a bit of TLC at the moment. .. but the soil looks pretty good compared with the garden around the flats
These are nearly 10′ tall and have flowers all the way down the stem.
Every morning (when I greet them!) there is st least 1 bee on each flower.
i think they are called ‘Autumn Sun’
🙂
All my gardens are in reclaimed ‘dead’space around my flats
