Winter Aconites can sometimes be mysteriously shy to 'take' in some

Really. I view Lily of the Valley as a borderline weed.
I do grow the variagated cultivar deliberately.
Yes, indeed, Martin. I know people who long to grow it and can't. I can
and, whilst it isn't a problem yet, it's running a bit rampant in part
of my woodland garden.
If you're one of the people who can't grow it, it must be very
frustrating to hear other people refer to it as a weed.
Yes it is strange. I guess the plant knows what it likes and is
incredibly fussy about where it will grow unless it happens to find
exactly the right spot in which case it attempts world domination!
