You can even get them without the black eye, but no point in my opinion.  What would Susan think?


I think susan would sue, not been boxing long and no black eye would say she has improved in her defence. :D

Got them back now to put some tread on them

Saddad,

Looks as if you needed more feed, I have fed mine almost none stop and they have not put the growth on but the flowers have been great.

Are they greedy? Would they appreciate a bit of Urea?  :-\

Not sure about the Urea, but I give mine FBB to start then good old miracle grow every time I water them. Seems to work for them at the moment.
Sorry to say I shall loose them now as I have returned to work.

Not had any seed yet but I am hopeful as some are asking for it.

Flighty,

I have heard of the white one, but as yet have not grown it.
Maybe next time if the chance arises.
