    I'm really pleased with this one, it spent all last winter where it is now, outside with just a bit of rain protection.

    Just love those Snap Dragons, Woo, so sunny and cheerful.

    Pete, a whole dozen flowers on that cactus. :gnthb:

    Lovely seeing these cheerful flowers on this grey day over here, thanks!

    I think I should perhaps give them (another) go, haven't had any for a long time. Do you sow seeds or buy young plants?
