This ones around 4ft across Wylie when the flower spikes are fully out would say they're 4-5ft tall, it seemed to split naturally into 2 when I dug it up lol, so the others just as big :-), looks like the Inula 'Racemosa', behind with the big leaves, is going to be a monster this year I've never seen the leaves so big!!! its said it can get to 8ft I've had nearly 7ft up to now :-)
Thanks Paul :-)
Thats a shame Karen I wouldn't be without this :-)

Thanks for reminding me that it's time to give my regular Stipa its annual combing. Just how big does this get?
