You'd think so wouldn't you but no !
This colour is a real 'accent' in one of the 'middle borders' that flank my front path.

Wagger ....... 'yes' - it 'is' sticky !!!!
The uppermost part of the flower stalk, between the foliage level and the flower head 'is' sticky ..... i hadn't noticed it before .... what a dunce !!!
I thought it should've been with its name and all but hadn't felt 'that' section !
