Looks good Geranium, lots of colourful contrasting foliage to add interest even without the flowers.

My lily don't know what it's called it's the one that has all of it's leaves die back and then flower stalks come every few days until the whole patch is done flowering and leaves grow back again. I know I need to get a lot of weeding done ;D but like clovers so I leave them alone That's lovely jrae, very pretty, is it scented too? I'd leave the clovers too, I like them & a lot of bees love clovers.

I would say a good month, that's what you get by overwintering one, first time I've managed it

Maybe some varieties live longer. Last time I was visiting my daughter, we walked into the bush behind her house and picked chillies when we needed them. There were some escaped plants there and they lived for years.

Looks good Steve, pretty colour, I've tried over-wintering them in the past without much success.

thanks Steve. All I do is keep it on the kitchen windowsill over winter and back in the greenhouse when it warms up
