Evening
I'm trying to find a supplier for a pericallis as this Photo
But I can't seem to find it also while I'm asking my book says this plant is called
pericallis cv can any one tell me what the cv stands for because when I type the cv in after the pericallis my search comes up empty but if I just type in pericallis it adds Senetti which is just a trade mark/name

Dunno James - but where have you been? Not seen you post for a while
Hope you've not been up to any mischief while we weren't looking
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Hi James
cv is cultivar. A cultivated variety of a plant.
In the sticks near Peterborough
Trouble is there are about 22 species of Pericallis.
Hello Fairygirl
Christmas day I fell down the stairs (not drunk) and pulled all the muscles in my back and trapped a nerve so sitting with the laptop and typing has been a no no until now I can't get to the office computer as my son has pinched that and called it his computer now (bless him)
Nut thank you for explaining what cv means
I started to sow some seeds this weekend in one of those jif prop seed trays first time I've used one as I don't really like them as I think they strangle the plants but I will cut down one side before I pot on

I did it in the morning with washing in my hand and tripped over one of the dogs
I did need a drink after that just to kill the pain

I hope you are feeling better, James. It will be a good job when we can all get back in the garden, its not safe in the house. ( Apart from Puncdoc, who fell off a ladder in the garden) Everyone is stir crazy.
