An elderly gentleman, a gardener all his working life, now long dead, told me years ago to grow new freesias from seed every year. He overwintered his in a sheltered coldframe that he covered with matting during spells of sub-freezing weather. -- Rodger Whitlock Victoria, British Columbia, Canada [change "atlantic" to "pacific" and "invalid" to "net" to reply by email] |
