I take it these are suitable for the UK climate, i am just seeing snap i got one

but what do they require in terms of growing apart from the obvious water. I won't search the internet for info with it mainly being wrong!

Hiniba is a green 'Montbeliardii' so will treat in exactly the same way as them and maurelii

Thanks kris thats just what i wanted to no mate

Happy growing to you all that has brought one

I think the main difference between 'Montbeliardii'/Hiniba and ventricosum/Maurelii is the height when young. This means keeping growing over winter, is not as viable an option for 'Montbeliardii'/Hiniba unless you have very high ceilings

At least 6 foot, fingers crossed.

You do realise you are not allowed to let it die

I don't want to see topics titled "My dog's eaten my 'Montbeliardii', unbelievable"
