    When my small weights went missing, the 'little people' responsible could definitely have been named - if only for shaming purposes! 2 small girls (one aged 2, the other 3½) had carefully placed them in the pockets of an old cardigan I occasionally used for gardening. Of course, by the time I actually found them, I'd forked out for a whole new set.

    Of those small people whom one cannot name - when convenient, would they please return that fine rose for the watering can, the small trowel (the one with the blue handle), the roll of garden twine, and, if they've also got that computer network cable which is still in it's impenetrable plastic packaging, perhaps they'd be kind enough to find a way into it before returning it. Thank you :heehee:

      Hi Jack
      did the Betulia survive?
      Any info on maintenance, propogation and Overwintering?

      A friend of ours has just paid £10 for a Betulia from Tesco and is now panicking in case she kills it.

      I have a thought that it may be similar to the Begonia Sutherlandii which we have, but just guessing.

      Any info would be useful.
      Cheers.

        It's about things that disappear and, sometimes, re-appear. Whether it's because young hands play with them and move them about :sad: or the little people having fun with us :redface: - but never because we have misplaced them :nonofinger: :snork:
