I will look to see if I have any more seeds left ! I have had them in the sunshine but they do better in the semi shade ...the seeds are very easy to collect in the autumn they are big black ones ....

Thanks Carole..I could put it in pot,and keep in a shaded area.:o)..Do you still want some of those white Daisies? also,when I split my Zebra grass,I seem to remember you mentioned that .I managed to get a small piece off it, as well..and think there is a small shoot appearing..

Ok,Carole..I will bring some,next time we meet up..probably next Saturday ? I checked,and we aren't doing anything ,I can't think of anything at the moment,as I'm hoping to gap fill with Annuals and cuttings this year..but will let you know if I do..thanks anyway,:o) We had a lovely time at Thomas's party..sun shining,so we were mostly outside....till food was declared ready ! His mum and dad did us all proud :o)
