These photos of different coloured ixia are for Liz at Exploring Colour who was captivated by a bright pink variety in her neighbourhood. My pink one is almost finished flowering but the others are just coming into their own.

Reflections on places traveled and photos taken.
These different colours of ixia are amazing Wendy. Have just been showing Nigel your photos. Wow! They’re all lovely – I’m very taken by that powder blue colour! What conditions are best for them to thrive?

Wow! I’ll keep that offer in mind Wendy! I’ve just put a deposit on a property this morning. Not the one I posted about, that’s history. I’ve found a basic cottage in Tapanui on 1012m. There’s plenty of scope for garden plans. A bit further down the track ixia bulbs would be wonderful!
