Brilliant pic Amy . . . making an 'ordinary' plant look really lovely! Btw, the flowers on mine are pinky-purple, perhaps a slightly different variety :)

Has it grown bigger than usual this year Amy? I saw an amazing one in the GC the other day - twice as big as they usually are! Added yours to faves, as it's so pretty :)

It has grown bigger Sheila , I thought it might have been because I dug it up out of the garden to use in a pot arrangment therefore being watered more than usual , I don't really know why , was the one in the garden centre in a pot ?

Yes it was, and priced at about £11 . . . tempting, but not THAT tempting!
