Clever girl ,it's always such a joy to know you have grown something so beautiful from seed yourself .....

Hi Kathy, Amy. They've really come on this year suppose because of the rain. Yes Amy, very satisfying :). Always been a favourite of mine Kathy.
Hi Paul, thanks for that. I dont think my Rodgersia likes my clay. I'll give it your conditions and see what happens.

ericaceous compost and vermiculite I added to begin as well as rotted fruit - it may not like very waterlogged that clay may give it - but I am no expert lol

Hi Paul. I appreciate your help. I'll try it. Uplifted and put in a big pot the other day. I have a bag of ericaceous, I'll sort it out next week.
