Very nice Helen...:>)

Love this plant, hope ours returns next year...

That's a double one, they're mostly single. But they really do put on a lovely show - and are very hardy!

Thanks Motinot! It should Dd, ours came through very low temps and were no worse for it! I have the white one too, it has purple middle petals, it's beautiful!

Ummm that sounds nice too.....

I love them but can never keep them for 2 years here. Maybe I should try again but in a pot :o)

That's a good idea Annella - that's typical of us Gardeners - we don't give up to easily! Lol

Love that colour !

I'd like to find a Cardy in that colour, Hywel.

I've got a shirt that colour lol :D

Well...until then I'll just admire the plant! Lol

lol :D

Love this plant!

Looks so delicate, but this is a toughie, it's survived harsh winters, (or maybe I've just been lucky Lol) Dug it up from the old garden, didn't think it'd survive but I'm glad it did. I have a white one too with a lovely purple eye.

What a beautiful flower love the colour too.
