Presumably because of the long dry spell, the above in its variegated form
has some ripened seed. Ray has used all he needs but if anyone with a
conservatory would like some so that they can give it a go, they're very
welcome. It has very pretty trumpet-like pink flowers but can't tell you
its ID more precisely than that, as it was given to Ray.
If anyone would like a few, please email me with your address.

Tell Ray to remove all the pods from the plants, I did not last year as I
thought they looked interesting and I have spent the summer this year
pulling them up! they got into everything :~) (inside and out)

He's got all the ripe ones from that Pandorea but the unvariegated one
hasn't ripened yet - they're still green. However, I must say that as he
pulled one pod off this afternoon, a few seeds fluttered to the ground in
the big double house. Should be an interesting summer next year. ;-)
Can you keep Pandorea going outside, Charlie? I've seen it in Jersey but
even there, frost got it eventually, as it did with Mandevilla.

I just googled for it as I didn't know it and came up with David Poole's
site, and he has it outside and mentions it can cope with the harsh winds in
Torquay.

LOL. You weren't to know but David is a good friend of ours - actually,
he's responsible for our marriage! - and visits the nursery often. His
garden is exquisite - a stunning example of what can be done in a very small
space with a huge plant knowledge. But his garden is walled and the 'harsh'
winds of Torquay are as nothing that sweeps towards us from Dartmoor, about
4 or 5 miles away. So - not much frost or not severe for us, no, but
entirely and completely different to Torquay, which is a matter of just
miles away or indeed, Salcombe where we have friends/customers who keep
Agaves outside all year round. It's the sea that does it!

Which just proves how interesting our climate is with such variables within
such short distances. It also proves that UK climate can always be a good
talking point :O)

It makes it hard to believe that a system of zoning in the US can really
work, but I nothing about it anyway.

Both sorts of Pandorea are ok outside in parts of cornwall but here in the
cold middle I expect to lose P. jasminoides every third year or so,
about -2c is the last straw so to speak!

Comes from coastal areas of Queensland Aus, so is reasonable salt tolerant,
DPs garden has I understand quite a micro climate. (he also grows
Bougainvillea outside - which is tricky)

Hmm, probably wouldn't last long here. We don't get terrible frosts but it
did go to -5 last year and it lasted for several days. However, other
things we felt certain we would lose, such as Salvia involucrata came back,
so astonishingly did S.boliviana, though it didn't flower and Amicia
zygomeris.

Davis has been known to pick his own oranges from an outdoor tree at
Christmas time, blast him! His garden is a little miracle.

garden is exquisite - a stunning example of what can be done in a very small

More recent group members also might not know that Dave Poole was also
a regular urgler several years ago, and is a particularly gifted writer.
If you look in the google archives of urg there were some wonderful long
posts about his fantastic garden and exotic plants grown outdoors, which
are well worth looking up.

Those who have asked for seeds will be happy to know they're in their
envelopes, on the hall table and waiting collection from the postman
tomorrow morning! There are still some left, if anyone else wants any.
