A nice surprise in the greenhouse today,
not had as many flowers as usual this year due to the lousy weather

Thanks, this one was seed raised a few years ago now and seems quite amenable to cultivation at whatever temperatures I’ve kept it overwinter. It’s very slow growing though and I am mean with watering generally so perhaps that helps!
