Thanks so much, Moli! I've saved that link, they are in Canada, so no problem ordering! I've never seen an orange one at my garden centre, and added them to the "must have" list. Also never grown them from seed, but going to try!

Re: Last bit of colour....


Well, I'll never know unless I try; the ruellias I started from seed are looking well, although they're very small and will have to Winter indoors. Nothing ventured, nothing gained .... although now that I know the name, I might do a search for plants......

Oh, remember me last year about the lovely rex begonia that I posted a pic of, and said that begonias hated me and never did well. It died.

Re: Last bit of colour....


Thats what I mean, somethings thrive others don't...I bought a dragon fruit from the supermarket and planted the seeds, I have load of little dragon plants now...yet my morning glory this year all died off....!

Re: Last bit of colour....


I don't know the dragon fruit, Moli; when you
have time, post a pic, please......

it is funny how some plants simply don;t thrive: I have no problem with fussy orchids, and you know how well my amaryllis do, bur cannot grow common things like begonias and African violets......
