... but now I'm not so sure. And before I duck the darts and arrows, ler me say that I know it is probably me that is to blame. I like the flowers and I like the leaves. It's just that in MY garden they mostly haven't worked. First I have to overcome that mite that destroys the emerging leaves and buds. After achieving that, the stems grow tall and spindly above the leaves. If I cut the ugly dead flowers it also means cutting the emerging ones. Perhaps I have them in the wrong setting - that they work best in a tropical themed garden? Comments and suggestions please.
