I live in Melbourne and am growing Rosellas for the first time . My plants are now around 1 1/2 metres high and fruiting really well. A month ago I put my 5 plants in a small greenhouse and water them with warm water to keep the soil a little warmer and they seem to be quite happy. I have learnt a lot and look forward to a much better result next season. A childhood treat to be relived in my 60's.
