I think I remember you saying that Bilbo - that's fantastic. I am just hoping I might manage to equal that. I think height must depend on how good...
Canna altensteinii [ATTACH] [ATTACH] My two C. altensteiniis recently hit the 8 foot ceiling of my sun room and were bending over, so yesterday I...
Victoria - I loved the pictures you showed of Iochroma cyanea some time ago. Its what made me get some seeds. I also have I. coccinea with red...
I have always kept them just frost free previously - this time they were in my heated garden room at 10C. I did wonder if they needed to be cooler...
For the first time I have taken to spraying all my inside plants with Provado, on a regular basis. In the past I only sprayed after I found I had...
LongK - I think I like Arisaema tortuosum best of all - it seems to be the tallest even though its not the biggest tuber.I had a strange thing...

Its a lucky dip Kristen. I grew some from seed last year, but that was before I had my garden room. So they spend almost all their life outside in...

If you are looking for foliage and height rather than flowers, Canna altensteinii and C. tuerckheimii are both easy from seed and will grow to...
