Storm has destroyed my tomatoes plants.... (maybe this should be in the bah humbug thread...

[Lula]

has anyone tried growing Bolivian Fushias?

[monopoly23]

Ive never heard of them. Since all this rain though, my front garden and path had become horrendously overgrown. My decision to tackle the path came after trying to get a pram down it on Sunday (when it was actually sunny) and still getting drenched from the rain left from the day before

And what did I get for my efforts? 5 bites on my arms and countless scratches from the over-zealous rose bushes.

I do have a beautifully clear path though..

Lula, Ive never heard of them but they sound lovely!


Monopoly - Congrats on clear path! Dont you just love the world of gardening, bites, scratches, stings, mud smeared clothes!

[monopoly23]

Oh yes. I live for it.
I can't wait until a year or two passes so I get to do it again

[Lula]

go and look in this thread at the Eden Project Crusher do, first post, there is a link to the piccies I took they are in there, I have been told that you can only grow them indoors or in a greenhouse, just wondered if anyone had tried

[mochamoo]

WOW I want one!!!!

[Lula]

Beautiful arent they and the flowers are about 8 inches long

I liked the next one down. I dont know what it is but it was purply/blue and orange and I want one of them.

The name is "Spellbound", but you won't get them now, too late in the yr, I would have thought.

Thompson & Morgan are the best for rare flowers and newest strains, but pricey.
