Lovely Jacque, beautiful. I would have to keep one in a pot as it wouldnt like my soil, but it is tempting. You must be thrilled with it.

You bet. Ali found a pack of Alliums: Purple Sensation bulbs in the shed about 3 days ago which I'd forgotten about! They had started shooting their stems in the bag so I quickly found 4 plantyers, any planters and planted them. Already got 6 of them up and looking for the sunshine in just 3 days.

It's a great feeling:0)
