Yes! As @infradig says - I cut all the stems on some suffocating ivy more than a year ago, and it still looks healthy! It takes blasted ages. And...

Thanks @NigelJ - shame, that iochroma is gorgeous, but my elastic greenhouse is going to pop if I try getting more tender plants! I might give the...

@NigelJ yes, I had problems with Parkers some time ago. But more recently I've found them much better.
I have a prostrate fuchsia procumbens that I recently noticed produced huge fruit - 10 times the size of hatchenbachii. I tasted one - just dry...
