    Cool, cheers girlies. Would they have come from bulbs, cause when I was digging the veg plot, I found loads of little bulbs, and that's where I threw them. image

    Vote 3 for cyclamen.

    Becks I would try one of the vines indoors in water as it is getting to the end of the season for cuttings outdoors.

    Hi Becks Cyclamen come from corms ie round lumps just under surface of soil not really bulb-like Perhaps your little bulbs are snowdrops, chinodoxa(glory of snow) muscari. They all naturalise. Got loads in this garden Found one corm about 12ins across. but most are small. I have ti mak sure OH doesn't mow where they are.

    I'm stumped on the tele front tonight . I'll have to search listings. Hubby and I have totally different tastes - the only thing we agree on is a good documentry. I fancy a blood curdling mind numbing horror tonight.

    And I don't mean Gary Barlow. image

    Thanks bjay! I'm not a flower grower, so haven't a clue. LOL

    I tried Geoff, I tried. image

  • Apologies Geoff, I should have known it was BGTimage, but I'm not a fan of those programmes so that's my excuse. Will try harder to get things right.

    Becks- our grape vine is pants this year, lot of lovely foliage, but the grapes haven't

    come to anything. Took this pec a couple of days ago.

    They are very interesting to grow, and ours took 5 years to really get established.

    We usually get loads to make either grape jelly or juice, it'' delicious so have a go with your cuttings, best of luck.

    Thanks Chris! How will I know they are edible? Or should I ask, what happens if I eat a decorative one?? image
