The message
from Amethyst Deceiver contains these words:

Misting the flowers is reputed to help them set.


Marvellous - but I didn't really get many flowers until late August. As
I said, one meal a week (for two people) from oh, actually 32 plants,
all planted in accordance with the instructions on the packetes.


My first guess would be lack of water in the soil. On reflection, this
would seem unlikely this year...
