It really is a wonder and inspiration that you can grow such beautiful plants within the climatic conditions you have. BRAVO!! I tip my hat to you. Thumbs up

@CPPgardener
thanks john Thumbs up I feel sure the plants kind of switch off a lot of the time due to lack of temp or light. Everything feels slowed right down and plants can take months to sort themselves out or to root. Watering can be tricky as well when right after is goes dull for days on end. Sometimes i feel its like trying to balance an egg on table Rolling on the floor laughing . But to be fair, you guys have extremes of heat to content with and outside plants get more bugs and mammals attacking them, so i guess we all have our own challenges in the end. I would love more sun (not necessarily more heat) so i could get more growth and seen the plants develop more, but its not too bad here. it certainly could be worse Smiling Although you will have to put up with me randomly bitching about the weather on various threads all over this forum. Moaning about the weather should our national sport in the UK
