This is where it all originally started. Mum saw a flower here and fell in love with it. We took a picture and asked a man on the desk in the gift shop if he knew what it was. Amazingly, he did! As I was stuck for a gift idea, I started to investigate it as a Christmas gift for her, and found a nursery based in Northern Island that sold them on Amazon. I’d need somewhere warm and dry to keep the plant, so my brother agreed to store it in his conservatory until the big day. As it was difficult to wrap, I just put the planting card inside an envelope since we were going there anyway. Since then, my brother’s admired it so I bought a second plant for his garden. Although our climate isn’t hot enough for the fruit to grow, it still produces an attractive flower on a vine that can be positioned on a fence.
