#sesbaniagrandiflora #hummingbirdtree buds are almost open! First time growing a white one 😄 #sesbaniagrandifolia

This what I saw yesterday. I must rename it (if I can!)

@jeatacake I saw your post, I was wondering if this is what you saw 😉 Seeds take a while to germinate....

I'm sure it's the same, but when you Google it, it gets confusing, with so many names! I'll not bother trying to grow them in the UK, but will save for next winter, when I hope to spend 3 months here 🤞 Cheers Theresa 😊

@jeatacake I started this one in the spring, and just like the red one, it blooms in the fall, the only time I had spring blooms is when we had no cold temps in winter 😉

The cold winters at home killed mine off! I'm told that the white ones are common here, with red ones being unusual. Sadly, the red one that had been growing near my uncle's has now vanished, but I think I may still have seeds from it at home from my previous visit 🤞 @treefrog44

@jeatacake they definitely do not like the cold!

Mine did not make it through our winter cold snaps, started more from seed... getting bigger everyday! Hope to see flowers soon!

I have some of these growing from seed I found in Thailand. They're getting pretty big too in the greenhouse. I just hope to see a flower & then get them through the winter, which is the biggest task of all! #clianthus

A vegetable hummingbird? That's what it's called?!

I have always known it to be a #hummingbirdtree

That as usual for you is beautiful. You have such wonderful flowers. Keep us updated on the butterfly license thing. Maybe you can explain it again. I had not heard about it before and it did not stick in my tired brain. Sorry.😌🤗
