Ligularia Spectabilis!

Remember my posting last month asking you to help me identify my Ligularia dentata? 

Well, now that I know what it is, I'm more tuned in to spotting it in other people's gardens.  My poor little thing pales in comparison to the following two specimens..... take a look at these.....oh my!
 

I didn't realise how big these plants can grow, or how spectacular they can look in a pot.


Just stunning. 

So...... when mine's finished blooming for the year, I'm going to move him to a nice big pot.  Will give me a better chance of keeping the slugs off him next spring, and maybe he'll grow into a beauty like these two some day.
