    What plants have the forum members been tempted by or are growing? Anyone tried the new perennial foxglove?

    Was that the one that T&M were selling seed of?

    Don't want to sound negative, but I've frequently been disappointed when I have bought things that are "mega variety brand new for this year" :heehee: and I am now happier to wait & see. Loads of such things seem to disappear without trace ...

    although similarly there are good'uns that disappear because seemingly better things appear. Suttons don't seem to be selling Cauliflower Candid Charm (F1) any more. I've had brilliant success with that (where I have struggled with other varieties) over a number of years, and chatting on the forum seems like others have too ...

    "Progress" eh? :(

    P.S. Just Googled and plenty of other vendors selling it, so I'm OK for a bit ...
