Hope yours are OK, Vinny.
Another success appears to be my perennialisation of a single PSB! I harvested the PSB as normal then whenever it threw up spindly side shoots I chopped them off. When it finally stopped producing these I gave it a 'haircut' with the shears and now it as fully leafed up again and looks healthy! It will be interesting to see what it does during the winetr but I will be well chuffed if I manage to get a second crop off it!
