Lovely pink beside that dark leaf. Any idea what this one's name is?

Sorry Karen, you know what I am like, lose the labels, will try and find out for you.

OK thanks! It is such a lovely pink!

Think it might be Roma or Hadspen Blood possibly will go and search and see if I can find the label in the soil.

Sorry no label to be found, but I think I got it from Harpswell, so next time I get a ride that way I will have a look and see if I can spot it for you.

If it's Roma it's a lot pinker than mine. Hadspen blood is much darker I think.

Nearly sure it was Roma, but I planted some in my top border which were supposed to be red or very dark pink and they are nearly white with just a hint of pink, think they get the labels mixed up - that is why I like to go and see them in flower. I hate it when you think you have got the colour you are looking for and find it is something totally different, mainly because I can't throw plants away, I hate destroying them. I like the paler ones but so like the ones which are red or dark pink. The other thing I wondered is do they vary in colour according to soil types, a bit like Hydrangea do? Someone might be able to answer this question on the queries page eh!

Hmmm....good point!
