      I had to start again last year as I'd lost my previous ones, so don't think I'll be taking cuttings, if you remember we had all that snow accompanied by the coldest night in donkeys years, I haven't got your magic touch so will leave well alone for this year, although I have repotted them today. Where on earth do you find the space to grow them all Balc, I've seen the amount you need in the past....

        I have the Prunus cerasifera, beautiful trees both of them, I believe your one is a double flower,the leaf colours really stand out in a garden....Good choice....

              My snowdrops are finished as well, they did last a long time so all's good, crocus are opening sporadically, the birds are eating the yellow as soon as they spot them, I do like your plant but they don't like my home or me, I say that because the outside ones don't very often reappear in the garden either:noidea:

                I keep the outside ones in a shed over winter, they usually pull through but not this year :scratch:
                However I'd put a few cuttings in the kitchen and I think they are fine.

                    I think our old Azalea looks more beautiful with every passing day. I will have to prune the one straggly branch on the left (and make a start to the weeding).
