An old, gnarled clump of this clone which flowers infrequently for me, with pink flowers compared to the more common clone with white-very pale pink flowers. Those clones are a little bit behind this one.

.. and here is a different clone of the same species, growing sympatrically in the greenhouse with the first, with a larger pink flower with more, wider petals:

That’s lovely, Tony! I have spotted a bud on one of mine, so will keep watch.

Just beautiful

Thanks all, and a quick snap at 4 p.m. today to show the different sizes of flower of the 2 bonnieae and the geometricus on an earlier post. The bottom plant is in an 8 cm pot.

It is that time of year we like again Tony.
My T. bonnieae ' s are still sulking ( but I can wait ) .

Lovely, a favourite! Nice to see the different flowers together in one picture.

Are these grafted out of interest? I thought I read somewhere t. bonnieae tended not to fluorish/flower in the UK on its own roots? I only have a small plant on its own roots myself that looks healthy enough - no flowers over the past three years though.
