Atropa Belladonna (Deadly nightshade) - I wish you could all see the beauty that I see in this plant. It was gorgeous last year, but this year I gave it its' own space by planting it into the island in the greenhouse pond and it has performed soooooo well. Looks nothing in the photo. But believe me, it's gorgeous. Ask Liga!

Pity it was raining that evening you called in, Michelle. We were in such a hurry to get back indoors that you probably missed a lot.

Hard to get a decent photo of it on account of so many other surrounding plants.
