Creating a garden since 2003 out of an old orchard, a barley field and a building site on the windy coast of southern Andalucia, Spain. Welcome. I hope you enjoy my rambles and pictures and, hopefully, a bit of warmth if you're in cooler climes.

My mother had a Bird of Paradise plant for years but it never bloomed. She bought a plastic blossom and stuck it in the pot (she had to grow it as a houseplant in our climate) to show the plant what it was supposed to do!
I love your blog. Would you be interested in adding it to Garden Voices? Email me (OldRosesBlog@yahoo.com) and let me know if you have any questions. I am the Editor of Garden Voices and always on the lookout for great garden blogs to add.
Can't wait to see it fully open!
Today was a lovely day in the Netherlands very unlike yesterday when it rained all day long. How the weather with you? More normal now for Spain?
Yolanda. It's lovely just now and the rain will return on Saturday, it is said, hence the rotivators going like mad and the spreading of manure.
These are the most exotic and exquisite flowers aren't they? They can just make a garden when they're in flower.
Nice photo BTW.
Old Roses. Many thanks for the lovely story. I have emailed you.
Hi Lady Luz. I have questions: How big is your plant and how long have you waited for blossoms? I have two plants, still very small, and I can't wait until they flower!
Hi La Gringa. I have emailed you with info and extra pics.
For anyone else interested: we bought this 1 metre high plant in May 2005 when it already had a flower. It continued to make new leaves but no blossoms until this year.
