Mark I bought that plant when I was in Ireland, can't remember the name nursery but I do remember it was in the south. The man was really nice. I think he was American. I went away with a lot of nice plants and lots of seeds for free.
My E. Maritimum is small but has lots of flowers on it. I think it's real cute even though it's prickly.

It's a condition many of us suffer from Mark. You just have to eat a large piece of chocolate each time the symptoms appear.

Do you realise how many bars of finest chocolate I would need a day!

Then stay home and read a book. :D

Had a wee girl at the door selling bars of Cadbury's chocolate today, which is a fund raising thing here.

OK Anthony but you never said how many bars you bought. ;D ;) I never buy much from the shops, would hate the till assistant to think how greedy I was so to think of someone coming to my door would be heaven.
