We have a row of these bordering one of the beds of roses, they struggle a bit
with our climate and need a lot of extra water during our dry seasons. They
didn't particularly like the last couple of days of 40 and 39 degrees Celsius
and needed an extra drink. This photo was taken a few weeks ago before the
hot weather arrived. One little plant that hadn't flowered for a few years
decided to open up on the day we had the 41 degrees and it wilted immediately.
This morning we've had a cool change come through, it is delightful, and
some fresh roses opened alongside all the fried blooms.
