My fried Michalis came to visit yesterday and took photos. I am posting the ones of the Roldana petasitis. I am very proud of the fact that I managed to keep it alive through the hot dry summer. I acquired it by exchanging a succulent in a pot for three cuttings. One died but i have another small one growing in the shade. It has a history. The old gentleman that gave me the cuttings told me that his old father worked as a gardener years ago in the now Presidential Palace in Nicosia. He also has a ginormous Erithrina...? which he offered me a cutting but I declined the offer as I could get one from the Nursery.
