    Hi Sam. Actually, they really are very easy to grow. Just have to take out the lead tip, allow 4 side shoots to develop, and remove the side-shoots from these side-shoots (if that makes sense :))

    Cheers...freddy.

    They look good Freddy. Next year the plants are going to be bigger, so you could go for 6 blooms per plant.:gnthb:

    No, hence my question.....

    Should I allow the frost to cut them down, OR, cut them down myself ?

    Cheers...freddy.
