Re: Peach and salmon-colored flowers

Hi all,


As holding the seed bank for the MGS, you can feel free to send me Collomia grandiflora seeds collected in the wild. We accept any native mediterranean plants and for entry in France you don't need any phythosanitary certificate. 
As you know, the seed service is running on an exchange relation. For more instructions, visit our website : www.mediterraneangardensociety.org

Thank you for your support

Hi All,
Thanks for all the great ideas on peach-colored flowers!  Agastache, Arctotis, Alstroemeria, Salvia and Pelargonium are all good picks: some I already have in my garden.
Agastache has flowered for me, but never really taken off; another salmon flower might be that summer blooming small hybrid aloe (Johnson's something?).

I looked up Collomia grandiflora, and it looks charming, maybe just right for some of the more woodsy native areas of the garden.

Does anyone have much experience with Hemerocallis?  I think I've disdained the genus because they're easy to grow, but I'm considering some shorter varieties to complement Limonium perezii.  'Apricot Sparkles', 'Blythe Belle', and 'Pixie Parasol' all look nice in pictures: does anyone know more, like how long will they bloom?

Thanks!
