Those look lovely. And your little primer at the end has really peaked my interest in adding this to my list of future crops to try.Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15949946977793864054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840827850297141825.post-48351816494410192232014-09-11T10:59:01.021+01:002014-09-11T10:59:01.021+01:00I have never grown them.

I haven't put it to the test yet. I think I would grow it under cloches though.Mark Willishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04558305122821209520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840827850297141825.post-10421890992294526642014-09-10T23:20:55.832+01:002014-09-10T23:20:55.832+01:00Can Can looks fantastic.
