the new flowers start this colour, then fade to a much paler colour. If you look on T&M seed site, you can see the effect :)

Mmm, nice, i quite like the idea of it fading a bit.
So often the name isn't really accurate is it ? !
I have just the spot for it .... not actually the SPACE but the area !!!!!!!

Me too I think it would look good on my patio rockery, the colour is so pretty!

well I'll keep any eye out for any seeds that appear ;) it's quite a new plant for me so not big enough yet to split

Lovely colour Grindle do they do it in any other colour? how big does it grow?

they seem to be more on the orange/red spectrum but there is a pink one called Rosea, this one says it grows to 4.5 feet.
