Echium fastuosum overwintered here and have flowered superbly. Ray did
cover them with horti fleece in case of frost but it was never a danger
in that particular bit of the garden. They've received a lot of
attention and comment and we're so glad they came through and have
performed so beautifully.


That's excellent, I do wish I could have some success with Echium. Ray
Brown has a group of pininana on the roadside outside his place at the
moment which are very spectacular.
