Danke Ludger, ich freue mich dass Du das gut findest :-D

Thanx Liz, I've seen a couple of pics of your garden view ... luvvlie

Thanx Jerodsmom, I am really proud as Punch about this one, speshly for me as a novice in Datu ... oops sorry BRUGS ;-)

Rootdoctor, I would love to send you a bucket-full of the fragrance, but the customs people would neither let it out of Germany, nor into the U.S. of A., they would keep it for themselves .... the wee devils :-D

MaVie ... Ma Belle ... I don't have a name for it ... the garden centre from which I bought it said it was a versicolor, but Monika said it wasn't ... I believe Monika .. it is supposed to have come from the same family which grows in the Herrenhauser Gardens in Hannover, Germany.
Hey!! They could have sold me anything if they had said it smelled like Cameron Diaz, I would have bought more .. oops .. sorry folks ;-)

Tootsie, great to hear about somebody else who thinks ... OOOHHH frost ... quick cellar!!!!
I did something the same last year, only I brought them into my office, and they nearly choked me lol ... I put them into a cellar, which was sadly a wee bit warmer than it should have been, and the big guy died, but the wee ones lived on, and from one of these wee ones is this monster now ... I thought these things only grew UP, this guy only grew SIDEWAYS!!!

GW & MONIKA, No frost here in Hamburg yet, and even if we had, I'll take it in when we have enough room in our cellar ... I won't let him totally freeze, but I am trying to be a realist gardener, and can't afford to be a fundamentalist ... I can't find enough room in our cellar to have place for plants ... sheesh! SWMBO would paralyse me lol...

Look at this picture, I was smiling but gagging under the perfume from that beast!!!! and a couple of days later, there were 12 blooms on the thing, but I was gladly "on the road", SWMBO went in one evening and chopped all of the blooms off ... aaaawwwww !!!!!
