He attracts the attention of rich color and wide superheterodyne border. The flower tolerates the winter and blooms twice a year, in spring and autumn. The height is 40-50 cm, and the flower diameter is 16-17 cm! This is my brainchild, to him I belong, like I don’t know… to your child!

Kirill Medvedev: get Up at five in the morning, have time to work a few hours in the garden, then going to school, then again in the garden! Water, weed, plant, and repot the plant, cut off, divide them. When we lived in the apartment where I was bred plants, but eight years ago moved into a private house, and then I turned around! The mother was given one hundred square meters under its potatoes, and the rest of the land can only step foot my dog ISA!
