One of the Last of the Season

18 years ago

Somewhat similar to not wearing white after Labor Day (as if!), but very different, this Tromotriche engleriana produced a flower the other day, but that looks to be it for the season. It probably would have been more floriferous if it didn't have to contend with the nasty outbreak of scale that it is battling.

Very, very nice flower pic, Mr. Harris. And the species is new to me. A double treat.

Nice! I like the purple mottled stems, too.
