Tried Cupids Dart couple of times, but it doesn't seem to like me.

Now it's funny you should mention Nigella Tommymoo I grew it for the first time this year and have been collecting seed,thank you for the offer though :-)
I'm surprised how well they do here SIris in my heavy clay, I read they aren't long lived but mine have been going for quite a few years now, this ones self seeded in the path .
Thanks Rose I have the white too which is also very pretty :-)

Isn't it strange they always look to me like they'd like really good drainage but if you saw my soil where these are planted!!!

See who else is growing Catananche caerulea (Cupid's dart).
See who else has plants in genus Catananche.

Pretty blue :-)
This reminded me of Nigella domascena (love-in-a-mist, ragged lady), merely from the colour. Have you got this Nigella thing? I bet you've got some, but if not, I'll send you some seeds. Please let me know :-)
