Nipped out in between showers and got these for you all to look at.  My favorite of the 3.   The top and bottom ones are what they call Water Lily Dahlia. If I have any left after all this rain I just may enter them in a local show, I will let you know if I do. |

Thanks ladies I ended up with 5 flowers off 7 glad bulbs. Not too bad I love your Helenium Tig. I had some for a few years but they just didn't come up this year. I have no idea why |

Some from the garden yesterday Schizostylis  Rose Compassion  and a Salvia given to me in Madeira in 2005 which I lavished attention on and took cuttings of (to preserve it) only to find it's tough as old boots and is taking over the bed it's planted in!  |

I think this is a Proteus - it's from some flowers I've got in a bouquet at the moment  |
