In praise of 'Super E'

Super Ellen has come through 2 winters here; the last one did get a few of
her less hardy compatriots, although which I'm not sure exactly yet. It was
a trial but I still expected 100% survival! Ellen Bosenquet does fine also.
C. powellii album looked in dire straits for a while but woke up just last
week and is now growing like crazy; I'm glad because it is stunning. C.
bulbispermum is the only one to have flowered so far this year.
