Hi Dewi and all others!
I'm so glad  to hear you speaking good news about plants whom seeds I sent
you last winter!
"Lingua di Satana", sorry please, it is a name I gave that plant, because it
has not: many varieties from southern Italy ( this from Gargano) are
heirlooms without official nomenklatura.

I want emphasize that  four "Black Namaqualand" plants (seeds by you) are
very interesting ornamental plants!
simply gorgeous! with blak leaves and quite large red cherry! and they seem
not suffering strong sun rays and extreme prolonged heat without rain, even
if they stay in pots.
Thanks.
Michele from Bari, Italia
