Standard Fuscia problem

resolve it? In a container or in the ground? If its a standard it should be grown in a pot and overwintered in a greenhouse or conservatory . If it's not hardy it will die and if it is hardy it will die back and shoot from the base and be a standard by Leogirl

chillies all year round and some of our plants were years old. I like you tried to overwinter but gave up and just keep the seeds now but start early in the season. This year I was harvesting chillies in July and still have much to go... I do understand by jk

Lamium and Ajuga propagation

, as I moved the main big plant into the garden at the end of last Summer. I took the offsets as a bit of an experiment so they were overwinted in a coldframe and then I planted them out earlier this year. I think if you did it now they wouldn't take by kate1123

Bare root geraniums

I ordered some geraniums and they came today. They were bought from Morgan and Thompson but when they came they were bare root plants (I thought they would be plug plants) and the paperwork that came with them did not say whether to put them by lavenderlass

planting mirabilis jalapa tubers

to plant the tubers? I'll probably plant some in pots and the rest in the border using normal compost with s bit of added grit. I thought you could overwinter them as dahlias? I've never kept the tubers, they're so quick and easy from seed and produce by Swedboy
