They're e gorgeous plants but don't like my garden.Had two at different times, both died!

this is last years - probably won't come up sadly - not the best for flowery ones as a rule Paul myself

I've had this in a large pot for years.. I put it in the shed, in its pot, each Winter and it comes back...:>)

I'm the same with this one, tried twice and failed miserably, nice pic mate.

should have done the same I feel - this year will be more organised hopefully now all sorted :)))

Thanks SL - a lot of mine fail sadly too

Yes, I even lost one in a pot Motinot....don't know why, it just didn't come up the next year after being in potting shed all winter!

Just love these flowers. I plant them, they do well but don't survive the winter in the ground sadly. I love their colour and velvety texture.

Gorgeous flower, but not one I've tried to grow because of concerns about getting to survive. It does seem a bit hit and miss....

They are so eye catching and I love their rich colour. At the mention of that word starting with ch, I am off to find the Dairy Milk as I have no will power whatsoever!

12 Mar, 2013

 

Good for you, wish I could say the same!

12 Mar, 2013

Mine didn't survive either Paul, but like Wild Rose, I would much sooner eat it! lol. Chocolate , I mean! Hahaa!

12 Mar, 2013

Oh no, Paul! its got to be Galaxy!

Eating healthy is fab! Even though I have been craving salt and or sweet having given up the tobacco recently!

Maybe I can put my mind to writing a healthy cookbook. It's all about flavours and salt probably!!

Btw it's bendicks for me. Luckily they only bring them out T Xmas and Easter!
