I have them growing up through gravel and in pots too. They're very nice. When I wanted to grow them only a couple came up but now I get quite a few each year. They seem to seed where they're happy not where I want them to but that's nature for you.

Funny you should say that Shirley I couldn't remember it either It took me ages to find it looking through my book ! mine have started popping up in odd places Tside ,i don't mind I love the colours :o)

Well done Amy, I just could not put a name to it!
Hb, would you like some seed from mine? I grew them originally from a pack of seed a couple of years ago, now they appear all over the garden!

What a gorgeous Blue, how big do these grow Amy and do they seed themselves?

Thanks Carole a would say approx 1 ft tall and yes they do seed themselves . I'll try to save the seed :o)

Thats kind of you Shirley between us we should have enough for Carole & Sheila :o)

Yes indeed Amy! It's funny though as I don't recall them in the garden last year, definitely the year before that.

That odd Shirley I thought mine had died out last year perhaps they are short lived leaving the seeds to take over another year ?

Yes Amy, I'd go along with that theory, lots more appearing in my garden too. :o)
