Notice the box decorated by Mr. Hogan himself! He'd kindly watered the plants to prepare them for a long warm car ride. You may be thinking something like, "so excited he wet his plants" but I would never be so crass(ulaceae) as to write something like that.
Beauties in the box included Aeonium domesticum 'Variegatum'
Aeonium 'Blackbeard'
Aeonium 'Cornish Tribute'
Aeonium 'Jolly Green'
I forgot to photograph the label and it's dark outside now so we'll just call this one Fred.
Aren't they swell? Many thanks to Sean at Cistus for supplying this prize and to Danger for hosting her series of challenges. I wonder what her next challenge will be?
Amazing plants, Peter. Good luck with them in your garden!
ReplyDeleteSo well-deserved! Your entry was excellent! I hope they do well for you.
ReplyDeleteHope they do well for you! Love the little hairs on 'Cornish Tribute' which your camera captured well!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it great fun to win a prize? At least I expect it is; I never win things... I like Aeonium 'Cornish Tribute'best; it looks like it forgot to shave for the photo op. All will be migrating to the greenhouse for winter, I suppose.
ReplyDeleteI love Aeonium 'Cornish Tribute'...might have to track that one down.
ReplyDeleteI love that 'Cornish Tribute'. Other than 'Jolly Green', they're all unfamiliar to me, although Fred looks vaguely familiar...Congratulations Peter!
ReplyDeleteI never had a "Fred" ,I'll have to look for one. lol Very nice plants. Congrats !
ReplyDeleteLove the illustration on the bos...looks like a cross between a plant and a bow.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great selection. The prize was as special as your entry.
