Many plants are named after loved ones or famous folk, some are named depending on the conditions they thrive well in, others by the colour of the flowers or foliage. However there are yet more that are named according to the time of year they perform best. I'm thinking Narcissus February Gold, which in my garden means March-April, the Christmas Cactus that is flowering again just now in March. In particular I've been patiently waiting for my newest Rhododendron, Christmas Cheer to bloom all winter. Today is 26th March.
But isn't she worth the wait? What a shot of colour!
Talking of colour, All my narcissi cheap buys from last year are looking fabulous!
