Lovely. I bought one of these from the local village hall last year and I now have lots. The biggest is about 8 or 9 inches across. Will have to give them protection before the frosts start.

Thanks Toto, i have quite a few different varieties now... have a look they are all on the first page in my garden page. i first discovered them about 8 years ago, and i have just been taking cuttings and increasing my collection each year... i usually bring them into my porch for the winter they do fine there, although you do need to watch out for vine weevil and chafer grub this time of year... i bought this one and another copper coloured variety. from the botanical gardens in the isle of white this year.. this is much smaller than the one you have, each rossett is only about 3-4 inches accross and i don't think they get much bigger, but i also have the bigger ones that can grow up to a foot accross, and they also flower... :D if you like these have a look at the collection i have...

Thanks Majeekahead, I'll take a look at your collection. I have two types both of which flower but one is much smaller than the other.
