What A Beauty!

One of the common names for this glorious bright orange climber Eccremocarpus scaber is Beauty Vine. My mum grew a few plants from seed years ago and gave me a couple of them for my garden; as you see, it's going strong and as a bonus, flowers from spring to frost.

Although I was away only 2 weeks, my garden looked quite wild so I've given it a bit of a haircut here and there. Off tomorrow to Gran Canaria - it's work though it should also provide some blips. I've been a few times to do walking and map research and it has wonderful mountains, tiny villages and views.
