My plant is in its 2nd year and was told it would flower from may to first frost but its now nearly july and its only in bud with a couple of flowers my soil is mostly clay and compost can i speed it up? any advice please.
Hello, who has a short summer? I bought a Lavatera on e-bay last year, about 10 inches tall, for the sake of economy, today it is 5 feet tall, amazing, its the standard Barnsley colour.We didnt have a cold spring though (or winter) suppose it depends where you live. Must get the kids to show me how to put pics on here!
