Lovely....I have a new favourite plant every time I go to the GC :)
Are you putting this beside the pond?

I never used to like them, SL...now, I'm a complete convert!!! :)))

How did you guess, Scottish? ;)))

It was cheap, J! A bargain I couldn't resist...and absorbable into the budget...
...well, next week's! lol! ;)

I think they are suited growing next to water. I have one stuck in a corner - one day it will get too big and I'll have to move!! (That's just given me an idea :))
I bought a rescue one last year for £2 from the GC - no nursing it back to health - binned it a few weeks ago!

Thanks Pix 'n' San! Couldn't resist it!

It should do well in my garden, Scottish...I just hope that it doesn't get too big - or I won't be able to get in or out! ;)

I don't think they grow too big K....suitable for 'small gardens' by all accounts. Just don't make the same mistake I made and had it stuck in a corner - you will notice I used past tense - dug mine out and moved it today!! Not ideal - but as it got a bit battered when the fencing fell down at New Year - don't think I've got anything to lose! :)

Mr. B spread his arms out and said, 'Comme ça, mais pas comme toi' - height and width...that'll do for me, Scottish! And it's got two wee catkins! :)))

...I think so, Scottish - I'm his best customer! lol!!!
