I live in Malvern, Worcestershire and am a very keen gardener. I started the Patient Gardener Blog in January 2008 as a way of recording what was happening in my garden and connecting with other like-minded people. I started a second blog PatientGardener 365 January 2013 in order to try and post a photo a day to capture what is growing in my garden or places I have visited

Any tips on these. I can’t grow them no matter where I put them in the garden. I love them

Hi Gina
This isn’t in my garden but I know you have to sow fresh seed and they need a lot of moisture and acidity

They are quite difficult to grow, especially if you have no good experience with them. The greatest chance for a plant to survive is to buy one that is young and well established, and then continue to take care of it.
