Andrewr kindly sent me a piece of his plant. I know it can spread, so at the moment, it's still in its pot.

Is it a tall plant?
I'm planning a new area and this would follow on nicely from the Digitalis Lutea that I'm hoping to have in there!

Well, the one stem that's flowered is about 4' tall if that's any help.

It is - thanks.

The pot is standing right next to a pot of lilies that needs to be removed back to the greenhouse area - so I'll plant them there.

I bought a pot of these from Lanhydrock NT garden several years ago. They dont look as if they are going to flower this year. :o( They have increased in number though.

Saw this one in the croquet? lawn at Rosemoor (next to Stone Garden). It was at least 3ft tall, but not a lot of them so guess not mature plant yet.
