which is a very long url! It leads to over four hundred search results. Some
of these seem to be wrong where for example the plant is described as liking
moist soil and needing watering in dry periods (not just whilst getting
established), but I would hope that most are correct.

Well yes, taking an example of these plants, mimosa, grows like a weed
in the south of france where it has lots of sunshine but has an
abondance of water via night rains. All plant needs water except
succulents. So all these plants on Crocus are perhaps tollerent of dry
conditions, this doesn't mean that they won't need water at some point.

Also thank you for the link - whilst I would love a mimosa, being the
scent of my childhood, I can't have one - NW england is not the best
place for it, but I once saw the Kolomikta vine and just didn't know
how to describe it, nor knew the name. Your link just gave me this and
I've just bought a 3l pot. Thanks you so much )
