Grown from seed, not fully hardy but I am hoping to keep it. I did try once before with some plants but they never returned. Going to try and keep this with some tlc and a fleece it is in a sheltered spot this time, nearer the house too.

I know Andrew it is such a shame, as it is a beautiful colour. Maybe ought to be putting some more seed in ready for another year. To be honest I try not to grow plants which do not come back but this one is just a little special.

I love this plant too...was it difficult from seed Olive?

No Moti, I am not that clever with seeds etc. and I managed but it is not a very hardy plant. But suppose it makes up for it in its colour and form. lol :O)
