A friend recently gave me and my husband a climbing spinach that you, Stephen, had given her apparently. :) It’s just a baby plant. We live in Bergen. I don’t know what to do with it to keep it alive and healthy…do I water it alot, put it near a sunny (if possible) window, plant it outside, keep it inside…help please! :-) Thank you!
Yes, get it outside, it’s a very hardy plant! It doesn’t like being in baking sun, likes shady, moist soil. It might be best to keep it in a pot and protect against slugs. Overwinter outside and plant out in the spring.

Great prompt help, many thanks Stephen. Will give it a go. Can’t wait to buy your book too! Cheers!
