@SajadAlipour98 Only single flowers dotted around. Does S. clusiana in this location never establish larger clumps?

@StephenShelle20 Looks like that fish is so rotten that even the maggots have staged a mass walkout. I bet it tasted good though!

@1davidcarver Just spotted the spelling. I'm pretty sure it's Richard Manuel. I have photos of his plants on the AGS showbenches during 2005 - 2007 and the current AGS Shows Handbook tells us that he has a Gold Bar so he was a major contributor at AGS shows in those days.

@1davidcarver Thanks David. I remember Richard exhibiting at AGS shows back in the day. Here is a close up picture I took of your plant on Saturday.
