Here's my Spring blooming Den. Gatton Sunray. I had to take a couple of fast pics as the bees were swarming around it. It's got 15 spikes this year. I'm not going to even try counting the flowers. Several of the spikes are in the back and can't be seen in the photo. I love this plant and I torture it in the winter and it responds by blooming crazy for me every year. It hasn't been repotted in probably 6 years, so I'd better switch it to s/h after it's done blooming.

What do you understand with 'torture' ?? Jean

I put it outside my g.h. and let it get in the mid thirties for 2-3 weeks in the winter. It dropped all its leaves but one this year. It may have even gotten a touch of frost. Now that's torture!
