Very pretty

i have this too, they give a great display and the bees love it :-)

Thank you both.

Very nice, Cinders. I have them too, but in a deeper colour...they've been and gone already here, though.

Hi Karen, have had these for years, but don't think the clump is as big this year. Have a white one too, but it seems to struggle so perhaps they didnt like all the wet weather we had.

I only planted the bulbs last year, Cinders, and they were much better last summer. I had put it down to having moved them. Quite a few of the plants I moved seem to be hanging on but suffering a bit...

snap, I have loads of these in the front border. I just love them

They are rather nice aren't they. I've got some in the lower garden not doing well, think I shall move them and keep my fingers crossed

Its been there a few years now.
