    Taken a few years, but i've finally killed the last mrs Zigs curry plant :phew: DSCI0001 (5).JPG

    Mind you, it would have died the first year she got it if I hadn't have looked after it :doh:

      Turns out it drowned. Thought it was odd as I always watered it at the same time as watering Boris the Olive tree, and he's fine.

      Roots had completely blocked the drainage holes :doh: DSCI0001 (7).JPG

      Compost was saturated DSCI0002 (4).JPG

      Put plenty of crocks in this time
      DSCI0003 (2).JPG

      And potted up my new Tree Mallow :)

      Grew this from seed I collected last year DSCI0004 (1).JPG
