Re: TB: Extravagant
Re Extravagant
I've been sort of growing this for about 6 years and still have only about 3
small pieces. It's flowers are certainly extravagant in colour, but
everthing else about it I find to be miserable. I've grown it in alkaline
clay and slightly acid loam. How does it do for the rest of you
