Flowering during the month

Helleborus × hybridus 'Christmas spirit'

Flowering well before Christmas this year.

Salvia 'Amistad'

This was new this year and not all that big when I got it, the rate of growth is amazing.

Echinops rito

It's November! These Echinops are a bit late...

Verbascum × hybridum 'Banana custard'

A strange plant, it has been flowering for a while now and the flowers seem to appear here and there over the length of the flowering stem. This is probably the best it has been.

Cyclamen and Persicaria

A couple of plants that are still flowering this late in the year.
