Thank you for the suggestions and the informative website from Jonno.

They are in full sun (one point to me).

But yes I admit, the soil is old, the plants are old, and I don't
fertilise them.
So really I am lucky they are still alive :-)

I can start by giving them a trim (more than I usually do).
Thanks again and I will keep in touch with progress.

BTW - does anyone have any names of fertiliser I can get from say,
K-mart. We don't have a nursery close by. The one we did have years ago,
it was bought out and an office block is in its place. It looks ugly.

Come Winter... say June, pull them all out, chop off the top green parts
and stick them in the ground. Mulch the brown bottom bits.

They'll grow from there and produce nice flowers.

I'd say yours are old? When did u start growing them?





Try dilute Aquasol or Thrive or any general fertilizer for flowering plants
with a lowish nitrogen content.
