I have never noticed seed on the plants, which will not come true Beth Chatto sells it as do many other outlets http://www.bethchattoshop.co.uk/shop/7/338/index.htm -- Charlie, Gardening in Cornwall Holders of National Collections of Clematis viticella and Lapageria rosea cvs http://www.roselandhouse.co.uk |
