Hi!
Do you plant it only on a window?
I have it potted in the shade of the garden and it looks much better
then I've seen on a window.
Our climate in Poland is a little bit harder then yours, but it grows


Hello from Cracow to everyone! I hope you dom't mind that I'm not from
The Islands.

Will certainly grow outside in the UK. Mine has been growing and
flowering outside for 4 years now, planted in the soil.
