I am a recent convert to Streptocarpus, owing to my skill at killing houseplants with depressing regularity, but am feeling more positive as last year's plant has survived and is flowering. Long may that continue!<br />Best wishes<br />EllieEllie Fosterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12437259693600577503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3535765080722557710.post-49473033797346755102013-07-15T09:42:01.543+01:002013-07-15T09:42:01.543+01:00Such bargains, the jug us superb.

We upped the price of the jug to 50 p (still a tremendous bargain!) as the church and community centre would benefit from the proceeds. I have got a pretty collection of streptocarpuses now (sounds like a dinosaur name!) but am sure these won't be the last. The propagation looks simple and I'll update on my progress.<br />Best wishes<br />Ellie<br />Ellie Fosterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12437259693600577503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3535765080722557710.post-61006124352912023172013-07-15T08:17:46.231+01:002013-07-15T08:17:46.231+01:00Dear Jane

The prices were excellent and the proceeds are to be split between the church and the community centre, so it was for a good cause too, which made me want to buy more! I was really pleased with our bargains.<br />Best wishes<br />EllieEllie Fosterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12437259693600577503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3535765080722557710.post-21388447413223815862013-07-15T08:15:08.089+01:002013-07-15T08:15:08.089+01:00Dear Gillian

The lady at the stall said they just wanted to get rid of everything as they didn't want to take it home. It would indeed be great for Pimms, or Margaritas, or any sort of drinks requiring a jug! I'm looking forward to using it.<br />Best wishes<br />Ellie<br />Ellie Fosterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12437259693600577503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3535765080722557710.post-85692129259762991242013-07-15T05:30:31.702+01:002013-07-15T05:30:31.702+01:00What a satisfying haul Ellie!

Happy propagating!
