Title: Really chuffed!
Post by: undercarriage plan on September 12, 2005, 13:08:23
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
