Nice one, I like the fern peeping out underneath.

Cor! They get big don't they. I've heard the blue ones get the least eaten by slugs. Much the more sensible ones to grow really.

Yes. It will probably get much bigger still. I think the bluer types seem to be a bit tougher and therefore the slugs find them less appertising.

I would say this is H. sieboldiana, or a cultivar of it, A lot of the others come from H. fortunei, so that may account for the difference with the slugs - Racists!
