Thanks . . . obviously popular, as Knoll are sold out! (maybe I'll see if I can put in an advance order - poor OH, I've agreed I don't "need" any more plants, but can't resist grasses.)

Very delicate plant Dottie. Your last comment made me smile because I say to my hubby that's the last plants I'm going to buy and then magically a space appears in the garden and so I buy another plant........LOL.

We were supposed to be going to Carsington water yesterday and it started to rain so Gerry suggested we went to Ashbourne.....where we went to a garden centre.....had a coffee and I bought a begonia for the kitchen windowsill and a red lady Hellebore for the garden. I've found another space Dotty........
