Secret Seeds

Gran Canaria - Jan 2002

Just a few images of wild and garden flowers we encountered...

wild miniture marigolds (limited seed will be available in the season)

Canarina canariensis (no seed currently available - but we do have a parent plant awaiting sucessful flower buds!)

Ipomoea palmata - growing right on the beach. We have taken some cuttings!!

 

Solandra maxima - again no seeds - but we do have a few cuttings on the go!

 

Clerodendrum aculeatum - growing wild

 

Chamaecytisus proliferus - darn it - wrong time of year for seed!

 

Cassia didymobotrya - we did get just one or two seeds to start us with some stock plants!!

 

Thunbergia grandiflora and friends...

 

Neochamaelea pulverulenta

 

Solanum vespertilio.

 

and finally... a typical southern mountain terrain - Gran Canaria - just after the winter rains.
