Talkback: Growing gunnera

Just checked - Chiltern seeds sell Gunnera Tinctoria ( and Gunnera Manicata) seeds in this year's catalogue. I have only bought small plants and grown them on.

Talkback: Growing gunnera

I have two Gunnera Tinctoria in the garden one grows right next to the house in a space about 3 feet sq. it's not damp there and I still get large leaves on stalks 4-5 feet long. In the winter I cover the crown with a couple of the leaves and they survive just fine.

Plants still in flower

Saw some blue bearded irises in bloom in a Bristol front garden last Thursday. I was amazed. Probably cut back the frosts we've had over the past couple off days.
