      I loved the astrantia–a new flower for me. When I grow kalanchoe it always gets leggy and sparse of bloom. We’ll see how this does if I plant it. I’m just enjoying it in the house now. A plant like this costs less than a dollar! So lush.

         Gosh that does sound like good value. I don’t think we can grow them outside here. I always cut mine right back after flowering and then they sprout out again and seem to stay in a manageable state. The bits I cut off grow on well as cuttings – they make great presents.
         Here is my post back in May showing them mixed in with other plants – I must have got the watering, feeding and light levels right now as this year’s cuttings are showing signs of flowering as well as the mature plants.

            Your link didn’t work, Daffodil! Maybe you could just send me the URL.

   I think orange might be my favorite color of flower. Beautiful.
