Sigh, I really wish we could grow those parrot tulips here! When I lived in England they were all over the place and stunning!

One of my Iochroma cyanea, Red Wine is blooming! I traded for the Red Wine and Plum last year .. they both got attacked by spider mites and are looking pretty poorly overall at the moment but once the soil temperatures warm up and they start actively growing I'll cut them back and hopefully they will bush out. I keep checking the anthers throughout the day for pollen, but can't seem to find the right time when it's released .. I'd love some seeds.
