The Jungle Grows
Looks like my window in my office is starting to become part of the jungle as well… An orange Masdevalia, pink Reiger begonia, Salvia guaranitica, Linaria, Davallia fejeensis (rabbits foot fern), Episcia, Begonia heraclefolia, and Cymbopogon citratus (lemon grass) are all growing happily in my west facing window
My south facing window (yes, I have two windows!) has a few more plants…but I’ll save that picture for later
Love the blue of that Salvia!
Hm… something to look for at the plant market on May 1st…
The cultivar ‘Black and Blue” is much much more common but I think I like the straight species (These guys) better, the black calices kinda make the flowers less showy in my opinion.
Well, if they do have any at the plant market, I guess it will be the species.
Yeah… like I need any more plants… but now I can’t wait for the market!
It’s a great one for the fall, it really comes into its peak in late August/early September. If you can find it, buy buy buy! Another common name is Anise scented sage but I don’t really think it smells much like that
The plant market (which is organized by a big seed saving organisation) is usually good about using botanical names.
Now I really can’t wait for the market!
Very nice! Love the begonia and salvia!
Thanks! Not bad for a bunch of plants I took from the dumpster eh?
Awesome! Jungly windows are the best… And you have so many flowers going!
All windows should be jungly!
