Love the colour of this one, like Carole says a change from blue.Mine tend to get very straggly, are these in a pot Spritz?

They are at the moment, until my gardener can dig the bed so I can plant them! (Did you know I 've had a young lady for 2 hours a week since my op? She's a real treasure.)I'm not supposed to do heavy 'stuff' in the garden (but I do sometimes, and regret it later...)

No I didn't, and you must do as you are told, although it doesn't come easy, when you've been used to doing stuff.I'm glad she's a treasure.Hope you'll soon be well enough to do what you want to do :-))

Thank you. My GP says I'm a 'slow healer'. Not helpful! I forget and get on with things...tsk, tsk.

That's so gorgeous! I've added it to my favourites. Patience, B, Patience! :))

That is pretty, do you know its form over time? I dug up my old cornflowers years ago, but this does look lovely and feathery:-) Will add DO AS YOUR TOLD! no wonder you're a slow healer:-))

Oh such a lovely colour, I am sure I could out something to plant this in its place...lol

No, Ba, as it seems to be a new one...sorry. I do try to be good, honest, but there's always something that needs doing... Patient, me, K? NO CHANCE!!!!
Dd, it is lovely, and I went and bought two more of them! The first one looked lonely, well, that's my excuse, lol.

Ha ha....I am really, really, running out of space.

I am, really, except in the ex-Osteo bed. I thought I might try to keep some of them, but OH says he prefers the mixed planting, and to be honest, so do I. So more of them might go in the compost bin!
