From a distance the tassels on this Garryia eliptica appear rather non-descript,
but up-close they are really pretty - like a long necklace of delicate mauve and silver 'beads'.
Happy Spring to you Alice! Your garden is looking so pretty, I can only imagine how lovely it will soon be.
ReplyDeleteThe tassels on the Garryia eliptica are stunning :)

I love that picture of the Garryia eliptica, it is really unique looking. Lovely pictures, thanks for sharing. :)
ReplyDeleteI too adore the Garryia Eliptica... such gorgeous draping. I can imagine the blooms flowing over building tops in the north of Italy. Just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad to see you posting pictures of your spring garden! Of course, that means it's almost fall here, which makes me sad because winter follows so soon afterward. Nevertheless, I'll have your beautiful blooms to enjoy while our are gardens are taking their long winter's nap.
ReplyDeleteThe Garryia eliptica is lovely with its long, delicate necklaces.
Happy spring Alice!
