I have just been given a cutting of a parrot plant. It has been put into ordinary garden soil. Are you able to advise me on the growing medium into which I should replant it and what fertiliser, if any, it requires please? I am assuming that I should be keeping it indoors
Many thanks

I grow mine as for a busy lizzie - ordinary compost, weekly fertilizer. I have one indoors which has recently flowered and one in a frost-free greenhouse. It grows well from cuttings in water.

How do I say thanks?
