Gorgeous! had to move mine from the boggy area, but it doesn't seem too sad. Flower buds still on there!

Hmmm...wise move. I can't see it enjoying life with wet feet!

Thank you - I'm naughty - it's still in its pot, as I keep changing my mind as to where I want to plant it!

I do that Spritz, keep moving pots around until I'm happy :-))

Lovely,I kepp changing my mind about getting it,I see one picture and I thing it's brilliant,then I think it's only so-so.Now I think it's great again......

I planted it - I'm v.v.v. disappointed in Erysimum 'Jenny Brook', because she died. She should have been a perennial. Anyway, she's gone, and Klaus is in plus my new Diascia.

Still in my liking it phase :-) Maybe I'll look for it next year.

31 Jul, 2010

 

LOL. You'll have gone off it again by then!

31 Jul, 2010

 

Quite possible ;-)

I've bought a Penstemon 'Sour Grapes' to plant behind it. I just hope the flowers open while the Stokesia's still in flower. How does that sound?

31 Jul, 2010

 

Only seen 'Sour Grapes' in pics,looks like a deeper purple with a bit of magenta,should look nice I think :-)

31 Jul, 2010

 

mine is still in its pot too and I boght it last year. I have seen 2 'sour grapes' and they are different so I dont know which is the correct one. either one would look good with this though.

I have the real thing - it's in flower, and the new plant should pick up the mauve colour. I have checked and checked!!!! (google, google.....lol)
