I've not been able to upload at all when I'm signed in with Firefox and Internet Explorer is slow beyond words. Then sometimes I can't see the pics folks are posting either.

Yesterday I planted some of the cuttings I took last September, out in their pots. They are growing well ( about 15cms/6") of new growth and have a good leaf structure. I have kept 4 in the cold greenhouse ( where they've been all winter) in case there is a disaster, but I'm hopeful The 2 large ones which were fleeced and overwintered in pots outside are still in situ - one has small leaves, but nothing so far from the other one.I must check the one I left in the ground over winter.....

You're doing better than me FB I have half a dozen which are growing well, but no buds or flowers yet. They got badly eaten earlier in the summer and I think it's put them back . I must get a pink one next year, it's a lovely colour . I'm just pleased really that they've survived and carried on growing, even if I don't get flowers this year, as it hasn't been as hot or sunny down here than it has in Essex ;D

FB I'm sure both you and Auricula will have loads more pics before winter time. I do envy you being able to grow them, they're such wonderful flowers and I'd love to smell them.
