Cardoon

[Paul Narramore]

Does anyone have a cardoon I could have seeds from, please?

[Miranda]

Sorry Paul, I don't have any. You could always beg some from a walled kitchen garden, if there is one near you. They always seem to grow cardoon.

Ah, a friend of ours told me over the weekend that another friend has some in her garden, thanks.

The Paulownia and Jacaranda seeds that I bought through ebay arrived over the weekend. One envelope contained a free gift of a pair of Fan Palm seeds, a nice touch, I thought. It seems I must now buy a heated propagator for them.
