I saw this at a flower show last year, Camillia. I stood and stared at it till my eyes hurt, the stipes are just so unusual, and very bright!

Are these called 'Bo Jangles' ? They look the same as the ones I grew last year and the Hoverflies loved them!

I've no idea Shirley, could very well be! I took this photo at a show last year! I'm hoping whoever grew it will be there this year again and I can find out!

Shirley I've just googled 'Bo Jangles' and it certainly looks like them.. although it would seem it's a case of mixed bag!
Mark61 Might have found their name.. thanks to Shirley!

They grew taller than stated on the pack of seed ... about 3ft. I think ... there are seedlings coming up from last year which I'm pulling out now!
