    15th June 2022 and as others have it, it's kept in a lot of afternoon shade.

    Some slightly muted colours as we go into the hottest part of the summer - hopefully we'll get a vivid second flush in a little while.

    My Shirazz this spring and summer. The pink has faded more than usual in this hot and sunny summer but it does not burn here so all good.

    Mines been acting a bit weird. Most of the leaves were burned by the sun and fell off last month, but now a few buds started flowering and it's October.
