Now the aquatic plants. The first pictures are last year's and then this year'sdisplay. The plant was supposed to be bigger already, but i started the seeds quite late in the season...

Some carnivorous:
Pingicula "weser"
Pinguicula cyclosecta
Cephalotus follicularis
Heliamphora minor
Nepenthes eymae
Nepenthes inermis
This is the Nepenthes you offered me John! Alberto´s one is doing nicely too!
Drosera lanata

Now some bromeliads:
Tillandsia usneoides, hanging on a Brugmansia.

Some begonias
Geogenanthus undatus, a spiderwort related, with striking leaves.

Alsobia dianthiflora
Some marantas and other nice folliage plants:
An odd Anthurium infrutescence
Heliconia bihai flowers
Codiaeum variegatum
Cordyline terminalis
Justicia carnea
Now a few climbers
Asarina rubescens
Marcgravia sintenisii seedlings. 1 y old and only 4 tiny leaves. I wonder when i will see the flowers...
The following pictures were taken in my workplace, so the plants in the pictures do not belong to me.
Thunbergia mysorensis
Strongylodon macrobotrys
Tecomanthe speciosa
Aristolochia grandiflora, VERY smelly!
A splendid Bougainvillea, taken in town, at night.
Now back to my garden, do you remember that wierd evergreen "Wisteria" that i bought when you were here John? Well, it is in bloom now! Take a look:
Milletia japonica
Now i would like to end with the lovely Philesia magellanica, a parent of the well known Lapageria, but not as striking.
Hope you enjoyed the pictures
Regards to all
Michael
