Thanks both, yes, I picked it up from the ‘little pot’ section on Tuesday. There were lots of these. Haven’t planted it yet - today is the plan.

Sure has been, Cal, albeit for a breeze. I’ve planted all my new purchases today. I’ve popped this one in a pot.

I love the sense of accomplishment you feel after planting up your new buys and then you stand back and have a look such an uplifting feeling 😊

Yes! That’s true, Cal. I did feel had I planted them all in the right spots, mind you! ☺️ Too late now!

Time will tell, I’m sure it will look lovely if not move it next year before or after they flower that’s what I try to do accept with my poor trollius 🙄
