Anselia africana DPAA 1

Although I already have a couple of these, I will always add one more if I see a nice one. They are not common anymore. I had to wait for a long time before the owner decided to divide his plant and was willing to part with a cutting.... paid a premium but I think it's worth it. It's almost a year now and the plant is just beginning to bloom.





Brassavola nodosa

One of the first fragrant orchids that I bought when I started growing orchids. Easy to grow and blooms often. I frequently divide the plants and stick them on palms and frangipani trees all over the garden.



Caladium white christmas

Saw this at one of my regular nurseries recently, large pot with gorgeous leaves. I just had to add it to the garden.
