Thats a shame KF - but its been such a cold and wet August here that its ruined some stay at home holidays for campers etc.

I wonder why that is HB? They do need light?

Mine has lots of light. I have had three flowers at different times...just as they have opened, we've had a rainy spell...and the leaves, which were large and healthy in early summer are now just a handful and very small :((

Exactly the same thing with mine, HB, new buds and leaves rising and then giving up...
We've had heatwaves followed by colder rainy spells...
I think its confused and unhappy...
