    I was too afraid to eat them It died down last year and I thought I'd lost it but this year it is back so mine certainly survived the winter. It is outside in a sort of raised bed with "normal" compost against a south facing stone wall. Mine isn't in a greenhouse and doesn't have any attention other than a watering in hot weather.

    Don't know if it helps because, as I said, I'm not sure if it is from edible stock but for what it's worth, this is my tenpenuth

    Looking forward to seeing how you get on.
    They are so lovely!! I have some seeds but have never had a chance to grow them.....I'm inspired now though!

      And why shouldn't it be talking to me Martin? It's very passionate about last years growth

      Need to work out the best spot for the thing now. Hmmm
