The leaves can get huge, and the flowers are no slouches, either. I might even plant one in my garden, tender though it likely is, just to see what it can do.<br /><br />I wish I had a wall to plant my Grevillea x gaudichaudii on. I'm not quite sure where it will go, yet, but it will probably end up on the south end of the house. It's clay soil, but my Convulvulus cneorum survived the winter in it.

They spent the winter outdoors, so maybe that's it? I'm kind of learning as I go. I thought for some reason they liked some shade, but maybe I'm giving them too much... I would have bought that gaudichaudii for the red leaves alone.

I have several varieties of ligularia and would add that one in a nano second if it came into my realm. I now have 3 different abutilons after seeing them in OR two years ago. None have flowers that big but I have one with the coolest pale peach flowers and speckled leaves that would look fabulous in your garden. https://ravenscourtgardens.com/2016/02/08/i-believe-i-might-be-collecting-abutilons-influences-of-the-garden-bloggers-fling-in-portland/ Can't wait to see how your Grevillea x gaudichaudii, what a little jewel! : )www.ravenscourtgardens. comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17352192526462955088noreply@blogger.com
