| First time Ruttya fruiticosa has flowered - gift from Pam at Driefontein nusery. |
Jammy Mouth has been in my garden for about 2 years, eventually decided to flower - they larger flowers than expected about 4cm in length and 1cm wide. They gorgeous.

| .... and then I spot after being in my garden for about 3 years of no flowering - Metarungia longistrobus, well this is what I bought it as - checked my books didn't correlate - Googled and I have Metarungia pubinervia, Red Sundird Bush similar to Haleria lucida with flowers shooting off the stem of the plant - such a surprise, all under cover outside my office - must be the crystal influence. Follow this link by Geoff Nichols for more about this beautiful Red Sunbird bush http://www.birdinfo.co.za/botanical/nectar/26_red_sunbird_bush.htm |

| These flowers are tooo beautiful - they shoot off the stem of the plant in this deep oxygenated blood red. No wonder they are missed by all, the flowers are not seen unless you move the branches and look beneath. |
