    OK thanks but I think I'll give it a miss this year. Just had some seeds arrive from chilterns, having another go at Clianthus Formosus this year, last grew them about ten years ago.

    Yes thats it, a bit tricky to grow I hope I haven't lost the touch. Got a photo of my last attempt but cant seem to get tinypic to accept it.

    Pete,

    A bit of advice, re-name the picture and try again.

    Sometimes Tinypic will not accept the same file name from your pc.

    OK I might try it later but your pic was better anyway. I wonder if its because a lot of my pics are the wrong file type.

    Pete,

    That is not a pic of something I have grown ;) , found it on Google !

    The best file type to use is .jpg , it seems to be the standard image file extension.

    Nathan.

    Yes I know that but when I scan old photos they always come out as Tiff images. Something to do with my scanner I think?

    Pete,

    Do you have the chance to change the file to a .jpg, using the 'save as' on your system?

    Nathan.

    Ps. try opening a FREE account with www.photobucket.com .

    No I dont seem to be able to alter the file type, only when e-mailing. I think its to do with the printer/scanner programme.
    Will try photobucket thanks.

    Back to polyanthes Nathan,
    Sent an e-mail to Taylors bulbs, got a reply today where I can get them in my area. Not far but places I dont visit often, so will go and have a look next weekend. Thanks for the info.
