Geoff and I moved to our present house in December 2013. Starting from scratch it's been a huge challenge but we love it. joanboston357@gmail.com

I've tried twice now, managed one seedling last year which eventually flowered but it hasn't come back this year, so very well done Joan 💜💜

Thankyou Jane, it’s an annual but I’ll definitely try them again next year @pelly

I read that they like fluctuations in temperature during germination so if I try them again I'm going to try that 🤔🤔
