Charlie, did you propagate that white Cobaea that PH gave both of us?
Ray
forgot to do ours and I'm longing for another one to grow up one of the
posts. It grew very fast up one of the trees but I think it was too
shady
to flower at its best.

Yes, I still have the original in the conservatory (where its a pest!)
and
Liz got cross with the babies in the tunnel so I put one out (no sign
yet)
but another is just returning to growth in the tunnel, so I still have
it. I
found it very late to flower being best in October and November. Did you
want one? we are at Newton Abbott next Sunday for the NCCPG plant sale
if
that's any help?

Sounds good - I/We will try to pop over. Many thanks, Charlie. Exactly
where in NA is it being held? I've also managed to track down a
Pelargonium
sidoides - the black one. A customer has been after it for two years and
Ray kept forgetting to propagate it and then found his one and only had
died. It's not exactly a high demand plant but interesting if you like
that
sort of thing. ;-)
I feel as if I'm playing Plant Detective!

We shall be all huddled looking cold and miserable in the cattle market at
the centre of town!
If you have any of that light blue ipomoea (I. learii syn Pharbitis learii -
the one that does not set seed) we could do a swap :~)
