Yes, when I first grew them it took ages to get used to the strength of the blue. Regularly I would look outside and think that the wind had blown a sweetie paper into the garden! It doesn't look like a natural blue colour at all!

A very unusual shade of blue, to me, but a wonderful one.

Thanks, I added a few more this spring, so this year we are having a lovely display of them. Once it is at it's peak I will take another photo of the whole shady border so you can see them all out together!
