oh that's a shame, they have gone to lots of different homes. Lots in the borders if you would like me to send you some more. :O)

I'll see....perhaps if they are a little bigger, it might work. Lets leave it till next year. :)

Ohh...Looks like my fave... P.'Millers Crimson'?

think Moti it is a little paler than the parent plant, well this one is maybe some of the others will be more crimson. You know your plants! I only bought one plant so was hoping I would be able to grow it from seed, lots more to flower so fingers crossed. Even if it is not as crimson it is a beauty and I am very pleased it has turned out so well. Giving myself a pat on the back, I am not usually good with seeds.
