I thought mine lasted for 2 years but it hasnt appeared again this year so maybe they are not totally hardy?

Hi everyone!

I'm sorry I'm late (a bit busy with OH at home)...!

I think it's called "balloon flower" and the buds do look like little hot air balloons, don't you think, Sticki?

I've had a pink one in a pot for a few years, Denise, and it keeps coming back...although, it never gets very big. The pot is completely shattered by frosts though!

I'm going to put these ones in the ground...so we'll see :)
