    Pete if you can overwinter them jusy more time, even if it means you having to move out of your bedroom lol...take them or even show them in your local 'Garden Club' Show and then have them auctioned off, proceeds to what ever you want it to go, my be the Club,towards paying for good guest speakers.

    Fleece is not really enough Fancy, some do survive reasonably well, even without any protection at all.
    But some of the ones that require really dry conditions rot off very easily, sometimes even when in a heated greenhouse, when we get our usual cold wet weather. [​IMG]

    I do what I can, pete, as I am not an expert gardener ( YET ) and I have nothing to take pictures of. But whenever I find some beautiful macro pictures online, I enjoy sharing them with you. I like all kind of clear pictures, but very much the macro pictures, as they show you more details.

    Mira for some reason your pic didn't come out.
    My camera isn't good at macro, but this is as close as I can get to my Euphorbia Obesa. [​IMG]

    Always makes me think of tartan, for some reason
