Yet another annonymous 'dead stick in a pot' from B&Q.
Now 8' tall and glorious!

Amazing! Is the purple part of it? I love it!

It's a purple clematis growing up through it, there's golden feverfew below and something else trailing down but I can't remember what it is right now. I'll try to find a pic of it to post. I planted like this so that if the 'stick' didn't burst into life then it would still serve a purpose...clematis support!

I love B&Q, they're so consistently bad at looking after their plants...
They seem to think that beacause a plant that's not sold in the summer, in full glory, may shed it's leaves in Autumn then it must be dead. I grabbed this little stunner in January just gone.
Well I'm not going to tell them otherwise if they're happy to reduce a £60 beauty to 10p!
Hope no-one from B&Q see's this x

We used to have one of these.
Never gave it any protection yet it came back year after year - until the dry stone wall came down!
Are they easy to grow from seed?

Haven't a clue Meanie, I'm collecting the seed though so might give it a try.
