Wow, you have been busy. Those new cyms look wonderful. Your shade house gives me ideas for the gap at the side of my house

Hi Stefan, what a great weekend you had! That pink Cym is awesome.
Thanks for sharing the pictures with us, I always enjoy to see plants from fellow growers and the growing spaces!
