Spring is here










Despite the neverending winter coats, I know it is spring because my sunroom is on the move. Almost everything has come into bloom. Last year's begonias have exploded in red and pale greenish-brown blooms. They have been teetering all winter and now as if they received a secret communication, they have lost all caution and went va-bank. Same with clivia - an orange-red flame just gets more intense every day. Streptocarpella is poking out with its understated purple bells. Even a little shoot in a pitcher of water sent out a bloom.
