ENGLISH BASKETS


English Basket

#2 English Basket

Both of these baskets came from Reading Greenhouse and I couldn't be more pleased with them.  I've been fertilizing them at 1/4 dose of Maxsea every time I water and that turns out to be once a day.  Religious picking of the faded blossoms has paid off.

You can see another speciman in a clay pot at the bottom of the steps.  That happens to be a well traveled Angel's trumpet by the name of Charles Grimaldi.  Charles spent the winter in the tack room and seemed to do reasonably well there.  The blossoms are the most heavenly shade of yellow almost a tangerine shade.
