Oh yes...its called Triteleia 'laxa'...its been flowering since early summer....They disguise the slightly tatty leaves of the drumstick primulas....:>)

Thanks Motinot - presumably they push their way up through all that foliage without any trouble then.

Are they bulbs?

T&M are sending me some free something 'laxa' bulbs with my last order, but I cant remember the first part of the name. Hoping is this lovely plant.....

That would be good, wouldnt it Spindle?....I just pushed these into the soil here and there ....If i had known how nice they were going to be, i think i would have kept them all together......would have been more of an impact......:>)

I don't know, motinot, I rather like the way they look as if they're flowering off the leaves of the primulas
