I like them - they are an interesting addition to Cornish hedges,
which has happened since I lived there, but Cambridge is a bit
cold or dry for them to do well. They grow, but not vigorously.
Could you grow them in a tub?

Probably, but it wouldn't help. They much prefer the south-west.


Well I am in Scotland ...

As am I - mine grow like crazy.
