Just loved the dark purple foliage of this plant. Must plant it next year. I think it is quite easy from seed?

Not sure but I will be trying myself as well as we can't buy the seeds here. Too many husbands afraid of being poisoned possibly :)

Its lovely isnt it Paul. I think I grew some quite a few years ago. It was really easy, but I don't think it was such a lovely colour as this one at Hyde Hall.
