070705 - First Canterbury Bell

We were very happy when this canterbury bell did so well.

In the spring, 2006, we planted one with purple flowers, but it died fairly quickly. I think I was under-
watering it.

This pink one continued to bloom through the summer and mid-fall, growing almost three feet tall and reaching long branches of flowers across its terrace toward the sun.

Its flowers were about twice the size of your thumb and smelled wonderful, like torillas fresh out of the oven.
