• @hugo7 sorry another couple of questions..
    Did you plant in the ground or a pot and what do you feed it with? Many thanks

  • Not at all.

    The two (now) big ones were planted straight in the ground.

    I do have another one in a pot that I got as a present and was large and well established (pictured) . That has flowered from the get-go as it was a good sized strong plant. It's a couple of years old to me hasn't grown massive - you should be able to see the OG cane in there somewhere.

    It also ends to have much redder leaves at certain times. Idk. If that is water, food, light or just that particular plant. We potted it in ericaceous compost (john innes no. 3 I think) as my OH asked in the garden centre to make sure they got the right stuff. Whereas the now big ones were just planted with a bit of whatever compost.

    I use Vitax Q4 Fertiliser ideally in early spring and then all through the flowering period (bearing in mind they are pellets so don't need to be constantly added or anything)

    I can't remember why. But feel like it might have been the potassium. Don't hold me to that though.
