This is a new plant Meanie ,I hadn't seen one before it's still in it's pot and I think I can split a baby off the side of it ( I hope ) :-)

Can hardly believe it's a campanula, it's so exotic looking. Very nice!

I have this too Amy,sent to me by a very kind GOY member :-) ,but the flippin rabbits love it, covered it in netting and they still somehow keep chewing it to the ground,so no flowers:-(, have a white one too a bit taller than this, both survived last winter in the ground :-)

Those Flippin Rabbits Kathy ( notice I have used a nice work like you ) are a da** pest ... we are hoping to have the problem solved in the next few days ,hubby is going round the boundary AGAIN ! with rabbit proof wire netting , they still managed to get through the first lot .. I'm pleased to hear that they do survive the winter ,I don't want to lose any more plants this year :-)

It's nice isn't it Carole ! I'm pleased to hear that yours survived the winter Daylily... was it in a pot inside or outside ? I've put mine straight in the garden ...

It was in the original pot Amy, i was not expecting it to survive the first year, but it also survived this winter too, put in the ground this year, seems slow to get going but budding up now! It was just in the plastic pot so pleased it survived!
