I can't believe that my Lewisia are still blooming especially after the recent warm spell..........

It does tend to flop down a bit during wet weather, especially when it gets to this size. Not been a problem this year There is a support in there, but could probably do with a larger one.

 

Is the Sollya heterophylla hardy @longk ?

 

Here in the Cotswolds given free draining soil and the protection of a house wall it is. So in Bristol given the same I would say easy peasy.

Just around Sunrise...I brushed the grass to get the moisture down into the soil its amazing how much we lose to evaporation it may look silly to our neighbours but I dont care..the grass needs a drink too. I'm just about to take cuttings which will be my first attempt.

 

What cuttings .....don`t think you can grow lawns from cuttings
