We went north of Cadiz (near Chipiona) yesterday to look for a paraguayos tree and hostas for the friends who drove us. We were resolved to buy nothing else! Of course, that didn't happen and we staggered out with everything but what we came for.

Here is a little slide show. We stepped into an Aladin's cave of ceramics, textiles, furniture, sculpture, tableware, candles.....then we tackled the plants. One section felt like the tropics so we had to repair to their bar/cafe for refrescos.

Lady Luz did you buy a garden gnome? I saw two and after you left there was only one!

Lady Luz, this plant is called:
Clerodendrum thomsoniae.
The common name is: Bleeding Heart!
Have a nice day.

Odd - I found it on Google easily. perhaps you made a typo?? Try again.

Sorry I've not been around recently - have been horribly overstretched. Hope things will calm down now ...
