  • Hi Joanne Taylor3 image

    We were at Tower Bridge the weekend before last - the perfume from the Sweet Box was intoxicating wasn't it?  I'd bought one at Christmas for this garden and shall be taking lots of cuttings in the future image

  • I believe you can buy them now. I saw one in a local garden centre on Sunday.

  • Cut a few to put in a vase in the house....intoxicating!!

  • What a lovely idea Fluffy Cloud!

    KEF - yours looks amazing!

    I've just phoned my local garden centre and they have just sold the last twoimage.  I would rather buy them at a nursery or garden centre but if all fails, is Crocus a good option?

    Again - thanks to all for your help and enthusiasm image

  • Crocus have a very good reputation - not cheap but well-grown plants packaged well. 

    Were you staying at The Tower hotel too?

  • Thanks Dovefromabove - I'll have another look at Crocus.

    We were staying at the Cavendish - our eldest son treated us for Christmas - it was very nice.  Walked for miles ... my feet have yet to recoverimage!!

  • Definitely Sarcococca.

    i have a cutting of one with precisely 5 flowers on it and it smells divine!
