Dear Helpful friends:
I have tried to grow Kangaroo Paw for the second year running here in Athens, Greece. The seed comes up and grows slowly to about 4 inches and then slowly they die. I have one plant left and it has shrunk to 2 inches. I moved it and fertilized it in order to save it but it does not look happy. My soil is probably PH 6-7 and fast draining. It is pale green and I have marked it with a stone in order to find it as it looks like a piece of grass that should be pulled out. The rest of my garden is mostly successful. The climate is hot and dry in the summer so I water with a hose. We have Winter rains which have really started hard this year.
Thanks,
Lorraine Schmiege
