On the lower patio I have five deep containers with two clems in each that are starting to entwine themselves to the terrace railings. Next year I hope it will be a mass of colour!

Tell me about it! I get out there with my metre rule every week and give them a good talking to and dose them with tomorite, but like all kids, they dont take a blind bit of notice!!

I have 5 pots, 2 in each Lou..then another round the corner with 2 in it (large and deep pots) besides the ones in the garden (11 I think) plus one on the side of the house and 3 in the front. Oh..Im thinking of putting couple more in the front to grow thru the shrubs.

They really like roses...and they look good with them too. I have Warsaw Nike which was coming along great guns until a beetle of some description has turned the blossoms to rags! so sad... been squishing with extreme prejudice!

Sometimes they can be so slow to get going can't they? Great idea though, and pretty flowers on there. :)
