Right! I saw the chalice vine in bloom last time I was at Selby. Sadly, I'm very challenged for space as far as big flowering vines go. I'd love to try that, and the Hawaiian Sunset, too.

We'll see what space turns up in the next month while I am still bushwhacking the jungle back out of the garden.

Alice your new baby begonias are just lovely! I have had to stop buying begonias until I get the ones I have situated for the summer. (but I know if I saw them at the nursery, they'd follow me home, too) Still buying orchids that I think will bloom on my shady fence, and on the limbs of the oak trees. Local fellow here is selling off his father's business and has a bunch of great ones at very low prices so I can experiment . . . work in progress!

I got two of these 'Little Lulu' brassavola crosses and am going back for more today. Planning to mount them to a big low branch of the oak tree for the summer and see how they do.
