Looking up towards the fish pond on a lovely day, bit of breeze which keeps it fresh.

Bought by mistake and I have never regretted it, well not since they were in their right place. Plant label was not what it said it was. Karensue had to find out for me what it was we had a laugh about it, it should have been a primula one of those with the pinky purple spikes lol. oh boy was it labelled wrongly. I love it so much so that I have bought other Inulas to go in the garden, but not this big one.

ooh..how tall do you think it is...certainly nice...

It is over 6ft. tall it is a pretty amazing plant, nothing seems to bother it, it just comes back year on year. If you have a tall space available it is worth buying, but be warned it is huge. The leaves are big and it flops if you do not stake it or prop it up.
