    Sorry Caroline. Somehow I missed this. :doh: :redface:

    Yes, they go in The Baffa, a detached living room from the house which has glass on four walls and they go on the South and West windowsills. They are watered once every to four weeks and the leaves drop See up above on 11 November when they went in for the Winter..

      I've only got the one plant now, its in the conservatory, gave it a good drink last week and new growth is appearing, would be good to get it outside this summer but I need the weather to be good enough.
