Thanks Jane Motinot and Pixi, this is the only one of 3 that has flowered, the slugs etc are too fond of their young leaves and I haven't the heart to kill them lol:-)

Rehome them BA.
The slugs not the flowers!
How tall are these?

Supposed to be about 3 feet I think, but mine's nowhere near that, possibly kept shorter with all the slug cropping lol. It flowers into november too, I should have asked Motinot how tall hers were:-)

Thanks, I need smaller plants for next year, 30 - 40cm.
Any suggestions welcome :-)

You mean to flower into autumn?:-)

Yes & others for other times of year.
I need lower stuff for my raised beds as I dont like it this year, everything is too tall, Lol.

Is it in sun? If so, what about helianthemum to trail down? More or less evergreen too and flowers a long time. Last year mine flowered upto November. Mind you last year was unusual. What colour and type of flowers do you like?:-)

Wow, this is a gorgeous one!

Googled it BA, could be a good idea. I do have one rock rose, but it is a bit hidden behind a big Lupin, Lol.

One side gets morning - early afternoon sun & the other side afternoon - evening sun. Back bed is quite shady :-)

Rock rose is different plant Willi, this known as sun rose and comes in lovely colours. Isn't it funny how your mind goes blank when trying to think of plants to recommend lol ...I can't think of any at the moment:-)
