Not only a lovely flower, but it made me sing every time I saw it . “Let me take you down......” What’s more the two that took ages to germinate so that I didn’t get round to planting them out are still just about struggling along in a cold unheated greenhouse.
I am trying this for the first this year. i will let you know what it's like!
