To follow on from yesterday's post, and round up the Kuwait gardening experience, I thought I'd share this image of patio pots spied on our trip. They're an eclectic mix! From the back -Marguerite Daisys, Busy Lizzies and Petunias, so far a pretty usual summer selection. But then we have Ornamental Cabbages and our old favourite the Poinsettia! Poinsettias are very popular in Kuwait and we saw them planted in gardens and in pots, growing to giant proportions. They obviously thrive in the heat and dusty dryness of Kuwait, and are left to grow naturally, not forced like the ones we have here around Christmas, and so they are far more appealing, healthy and natural looking.
So I've discovered were we should send all the Poinsettias to be happy - the very best place for them - hurrah!
