I've yet to get LotV to grow successfully in any garden I have ever had and by now, that's quite a few! I put mine up against a North facing wall in the worst clay/soil/ builders rubble imaginable. They increased like wabbits. Every spring I dug out the ones that were sneaking towards the front of the border, potted them up and sold them at boot sales - they were very popular especially when in flower. I have even resorted to getting someone else to plant them for me, convinced that it's me they won't 'do' for. even that didn't work. We've put them in all sorts of places here but with no luck so now I'm going to do as you suggest and find the most inhospitable place I can and try them there! -- -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.com Exotic plants, shrubs & perennials South Devon |
