Re: Dinteranthus
Thanks guys! Ian, thanks to your advice in a post a couple of years ago, I didnt water them too much when they grew up!
The vanzylii is the lone survivor of a potful of seedlings that were doing very well, when I dropped the entire potful upside down on the greenhouse floor, at the green raspberry stage. Amazingly one plant made it. Not a recommended seed-raising technique
Luckily they were on the BCSS seed list the following year, so I have another potful coming along...
