But they never grew as well as his did.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02114199768103222510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7912468918847715397.post-38241758295150949792011-08-15T16:42:41.592+01:002011-08-15T16:42:41.592+01:00At one stage I thought that I'd have none but ...At one stage I thought that I'd have none but at long last some are just starting to form!<br />Meantime plot neighbours have been very generous and given me plenty.

Quite decorative as a patio plant though.Mark Willishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04558305122821209520noreply@blogger.com
