We've had a bout of warm weather which has pushed so many to bloom! Now it's come in rainy, which is welcome after a dry spell - just annoying timing when you're wanting to hybridise..!

I have this seedling... this is the third year I've seen it bloom.

Keep it or yeet it to make room for others?

The season is gathering steam as the days are continuing warm and sunny! A gorgeous spring day here in west Gippsland. Made a few crosses today, or 'playing bee' as I call it.
