    Possibly a red hot poker (without the poker)?
  • Second that, should look nice next year.
    I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.

    I think that's right. I've grown some red hot pokers from seed this year and they look like mini versions of the plant in your picture.
    2026's challenges: 1) To rebuild our Emergency Fund to at least £5k.
    2) To read 50 books (12/50) 3) The Re-Shrinking of Foxgloves 8.1kg/30kg
    Remember....if you have to put it on a credit card, extend your overdraft or take out a loan to buy whatever it is, you probably can't afford it, as that's not your money, it's somebody else's!
