I have seen that at Capellagården, Öland, where they grow them. But that is also a really dry site, so it's probably more extreme than in any ordinary garden. It will be interesting to see the results in Laholm, especially after this hot and dry summer.Lars Forslinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09643827659676705890noreply@blogger.com
