Thanks everyone for all your nice comments, I do grow this one in a pot as it was a gift from Marie my next door neighbour but I also have a clump of White ones which are thriving in the border too;0)

They are great! I had a pink one in my old garden, it got really big and spread, the ones I have here, are shy, but doing well.
