Those of you who watched Gardeners World the other night would have saw a tip from Carol Klein about picking up plants in the bargain display and dividing.
4 pots of Lobelia for £2 each - the darker leaved ones have around 3 rosettes, the others which is Fan series Burgundy have many more. I'm well chufed :)

I really like Carol Klein and I can imagine the enthusiasm in her voice whenever I read about her. Hope they do really well for you, I have a feeling that they will - coz Carol said so!

Thank you all ladies and Andrew- an update - I got 9 plants in total from the darker leaved plants and I've decided to keep the green foliage plants as they are just now. After cutting of the spent flower stems - there are one or two shoots with new flower buds. If it stays sunny enough I might get a few later flowers. They can always be split next year :))
