Really chuffed!

Grew this from seed last year, didn't do much the first season, but this year, it's blooming it's little socks off!! And, wait for it, overwintered it outside :o :o :o! No protection, by the side of the house. Not a cunning plan, just no room inside, smells fabulous. Lottie ;D ;D ;D

Thanks Wardy! Mimi, good plan! Though it was quite easy to grow from seed and managed the winter outside, oh dear, what to do...! OK, seeds, cuttings, half winter in the house, half out.....and big barrel to fix to wall for hanging basket! There, easy, sorted.. ;D Lottie
