Ooooh, is that what it is, right, thanks so much for telling me Sewingkilla, I'll know what to look out for now!

Thanks Vincentdunne! I'm planning on planting it in the shady area.

Snap! I planted 10 of them last month (another ebay bargain) they are looking lush but not sure if they will flower this year.

Oooh, well done Norfolk! Fingers crossed for you! Will they be in a protected area from your ladies?

How tall do these grow ,I got a cutting out of a friends garden .

So mine is still small.

In shade, 3ft. stems arching over, so about 2ft. Some species and the variegated ones can be smaller.
