I have the L. syphlitica which is a wild flower in parts of N.A. The flowers on this plant seem to have longer petioles..standing farther from the main stem than the one I have...and they are so gothic looking. like the rainspouts on a cathedral tower! or dragon's heads...not sure which suits it best. Beautiful blue as well. lovely plant, I hope your slugs give it a by.
