I like the blue ones, particularly. But I, like you, have 'Neon' and I enjoy its eye-popping shade. I think I'm turning into my Mum as I get older, the hot shades begin to appeal more than the subtle ones in a lot of ways. P'raps it's the fading eyesight....

I think uliginosa is not so woody as some species and a little more tender, but now it's got going it's shot up and covered in flowers.
