    Just saw your post here hollie image

    Glad the cuttings are doing well. I have a few seedlings around in the gravel and in pots but the magpies have been digging up the ones in the gravel image 

    I might grow on the bigger ones in pots for next year image

    I always sow mine quite late on and they germinate easily. A little seed in  a few pots then pricked out into bigger ones. By then the weather's decent enough to get them outside and let them grow on. They make big plants the following year. Taking cuttings is the easiest method though image

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    Self seeds with abandon on my heavy clay but only on sunny side of the garden
    In London. Keen but lazy.
