    Thank you very muchimage I've just ordered one.

    That might just be what I've been looking for. I've been finding it curious how things are named the more I've been getting to know the botanical names. I am also interested in trying to identify plants by the family they belong to and like Potsandpansies says, bring the plant to life. I imagine it would be easier to recall the name as well if I understand what it means.

    Good to hear someone else appreciates it potsandpansiesimage

    Victoria, plants can be so much more interesting than a 'a bit of colour' in the garden. I get endless enjoyment from looking at it allimage

    Update on this if anyone's interested:

    It turns out the grower is struggling to grow them too and therefore I won't be receiving any according to a letter I received this morning!

    Clearly they will be too troublesome for the sponge garden...image

    On the plus side, due to that and another slight boo boo I now have £25 of vouchers to spend at Hayloft to fill my patches of bare earth.
