Hi Trinkie, thanks, wouldn't it be easier if you just sent them direct to my house? What cuttings can you send me? Rob

There you are ! You have been transplanted !!
Because I dont know how green are your fingers, I will send you -
a Spider plant - very easy to grow, likes water and fair to good light.
Dark Begonia - very easy, likes a shady spot. The leaves are dark with a reddish glow, little pink flowers . Will tolerate lack of watering ! Very striking by a pale wall.
Streptocarpus - With a purple flower. Easy and most tolerant. cuttings may be taken by sticking a leaf in some soil....You can cut the leaf into sections and stick each part in soil - they will all take. Likes to be neglected for months at a time.
Kaffir Lily...... my Pride and Joy ! I have kept this plant going for over 30yrs. Very easy, needs little watering and must be pot-bound. In fact leave it in a pot until the pot breaks ! The flowers are a joy ! I will try to get a photo of this plant on here.
Hydrangea - a small house plant, with a little pink flower..... Loves water - hence the name !
A couple of Geraniums - all easy .
If you give your address to one of the Mods, I am sure they will pass it on to me. Then I'll post the plants at the start of next week, to avoid them hanging around in the post office over the weekend.
My pleasure.
Haha! Well my gran taught me a lot about gardening! I would say my fingers are green....know loads of latin and common names for plants! eg. geraniums are called pelargoniums! Haha! How are the cuttings going to be packaged? I'm REALLY greatful! Can I not just pm you mty address? Rob

Well done !! Keep them in water and ask your friends for old pots ! You could even ask in a charity shop. But wash secondhand pots thoroughly !
Woolworths for compost I'd think.
I hope they give you as much pleasure as they have given me !

Sounds good! Can't wait! Also, have you got any ideas how to keep cats off of houseplants? I don't want my kittens butchering them!

Rob, I've got loads of chilli plant seedlings on the go just now, I'll pot a few up for you and grow them on a bit then get them to you. Just need a sunny window sill then you can make a curry for your mates and blow their heads off lol
Sweetpea, that's really nice of you! Would be good! Would you just post them once theyv grown or you needing them collected?

It'll be 6-8 weeks before they're sturdy enough. I'll get back to you, up to you but I can easily drop them off to you somewhere when they're ready
Ok sounds good, hopefully my cats wont eat the chillis...if they do they might stop eating all my plants! OK cool.
