A bargain buy from our trip to Breezy Knees in September, in the sale as it was actually bursting out the pot only cost £3.50 I couldn't leave it could I? just wish I'd bought more now as there were loads of different ones for the same price :-), its now potted into a much bigger pot in the greenhouse and has 3 flowering stems, thought it best to overwinter in there and plant out next spring.
