It was a bit delicate when I 1st had as plug plants from T&M but the second year romped away I find it likes a good deep pot I haven't tried in the border soil yet but I do have couple of smaller pots I may try , how did you grow it ?

Thanks Siris

Hi Motinot

Thats a shame, over winter I do move all of them into the greenhouse and they carru on growing and flowering, apart from the large plant in the photo had been left out . but close to the house wall , it did lose most of its leaves but soon sprouted again in the spring.

They can be a bit fiddly to get established as when I 1st had them (plugs) , as the stems are very brittle and top heavy but as you can see doing great i feed with tomato food and every couple of weeks a seafeed spray
