That's a little beauty and congratulations in managing to raise it from seed Nicola.
Out of your seed batch, how many plants did you get?

I quite agree with George. It is a beautiful little plant and I am also imoressed that you raised it from seed. I'm no one for raising plants, it's Anthea that potters in the greenhouse raising plants with loving care.

Hats off to you Nicola  :D
They seem to be hard to raise once they have germinated. You've done very well and I'm sure you are delighted to see the result. Keep up the good work!
