Commelina communis

oh no!!! first you put white on ~ my favourite and now you put blue ~~~ not sure which i like best for colour!!!

what a fascinating thing.

Interesting, is it hardy?

Just a wee thing, but very eye-catching!

Half hardy annual I'm afraid from my searches..........

Ohhhh.

does it really glisten?

Should be hardy enough for Alex though...........

It certainly does when the sun is on it!

Mmmm wonder if it self seeds like the others.

Only one way to find out........

very nice, i've got some seed of C.Dianthifolia to try next year..

I think that I may try too..........

i just love the colour of them, plus it'll look good on my new rockery i'm building this winter..

Ah, I can see it now!
Bletilla, Pleoines and so on............

Yes also a few other treasures i'm looking for...... am i that predictable!!

I would recommend these...........

The yellow Penstemon is a definite i think, i'm not really a fuchsia person but that is nice..

Fuchsia in common name only!

I have lots of this and find them very hardy Meanie...survived outdoors in the ground last Winter...and yes they do glisten Sticki....:>)

I knew that I had commented on someones Commelina! Do you have this one?

Even outdoors? That's incredible!
