One thought on “ATIS”

  1. I love Atis but very expensive in the US. I bought seeds so I can plant its seedlings but from the any seeds I sowed, only one appears to thrive; only 2 inches high right now. I hope it will really thrive. I’m prepared to shield it from the cold this winter once I transplant it in another pot.
