Love those and they must smell amazing 🤩. I have some too but they bloom in the winter here. It’s too hot most of the time.

@jeatacake I only realised that this spring, after years trying to get them to last more than one year 😂

@jeatacake @hkyfvr @gjones thank you all 😊 I don’t have much luck with them either, especially after their first year. I can’t stop trying with them though 🙈

Very welcome. Wonder why they are so difficult? Keep trying and you’ll find the secret. 💜

@hkyfvr I don’t think they’re hardy and I never remember to bring them in the greenhouse through winter. One or two might come back but never many 😏

@alan1111 I don’t have much luck with them either. Certainly never had them return before. Quite a surprise to find it 😛

@gjones thanks Katy 😄 I am fascinated how different the colour of the buds are to the open flower 😜

@gjones I know how you feel 😣 had success once before but they didn’t look great at all. And these ones, only a few bulbs have grown. Not even half I don’t think 😔 always the ones you want most that fail 😂
