    I have seen this on sale at Wilko's (not sure how many have access to these stores) but it is being imported along with the 'patioplant' collections from Holland...you know the tall cardboard boxes with pretty pictures on...lemons, oranges, apples, pears, figs etc etc

    On sale in nearly every gardening outlet in my area, and a few other places, seems to be 'in' at the moment.
    Pretty easy to grow, likes good drainage, not totally hardy, but should be OK in a protected area perhaps that catches some winter sun.
