| These have all been flowering continuously for ages. I've put them on before but there isn't much else flowering at the moment that you all haven't already seen. Tibouchina alstonville  Not many flowers left on the poinciana. I've never heard of a poinciana flowering for this long   Jacaranda semiserrata still has a few flowers opening  Bougainvillea 'Rikki Ann' has nearly finished, the flowers are starting to fade. It has been flowering since the end of January/start of February  Kaempferia still going  Ruellia macrantha has flowers off and on throughout the year  Little red canna seems to always have a flower  Another louisianna iris plant is starting to flower. It hasn't been flowering for ages but is the 2nd lot.  | |

| Thanks.
Richard, that purple really stands out. Our place is about 100m from the road with quite a few trees in between but we can spot the purple from the road easily. | |

| Good news about the tib coming back Cheryl Gwen, does the tibouchina grow up your way? They don't mind the heat as long as the roots don't dry out but not sure about your high humidity. Summer doesn't worry them here but we don't get as many high humidity days as you. | |
