I think I haven't posted a photo of this red Busy Lizzie on the balcony table. I don't like it very much - not a thing I normally would say of any plant! But it's a bit of an "Ugly Duckling" of a plant! the flowers are very easily marked by water splashes & the leaves never look good, often too dark a green & often turn yellow (I picked them off before taking this photo! Lol!) I would never have bought this one but it probably came in a mixed packet of plugs.

I have a similar one which is marked by the rain and needs daily revamping but this is a lovely Red despite its shortcomings.
