Dierama - gorgeous plants but not easy to keep for me.  I think it gets too very cold here.

Great stuff TeeGee.  I've bookmarked it for future reference as one day I plan to have a garden in which I can grow them.

I grew some of these from seed about three years ago and they are still quite small and slow growing in a large flower pot . Waiting for them to get bigger before planting them out ...I wish I,d just bought plants !  Lol !  Debbie  :coffee2:
