It is always special to see once of your babies doing well. This Iochroma australe was grown from seed and now, with its pale sister, is thriving in Max’s garden.
I do wish I had kept one for myself. It could have elbowed its way into a corner somewhere.
On reflection it probably is for the best. Sometimes you have to let your young ‘uns go, to spread their leaves elsewhere.
It will always set seed and you could have a go. A plant sent to a friend’s garden, is not a plant lost, unless it dies there!!!!! Cuttings, seeds etc possible.

So true, thank you. I am going to collect some nasturtiums seed for you. I haven’t forgotten, you are on my list!

You’re right Gill; some need to be let go and face the world in other gardens 🙂 it is in their own best interest.
