thanks for sharing

Thanks Gg your welcome, it is a nice one and seems easy to grow, used to be called Eupatorium Chocolate then changed to Ageratina altissima Chocolate, it has small white flowers a bit later, moved it to this position earlier this year thought it might be too hot for it but its been ok so far in full sun (with our weather!) :)

does it stay out all year ? you are in the UK ?

Yes I'm in the west midlands Gg, its a hardy perennial it normally likes moist soil which I have in most of my garden but we have quite sandy soil in this border (enriched with manure) as it was topsoil we bought in to fill a sunken area which used to have a greenhouse by the previous owners, but I wanted to try it as it goes with the colour scheme I'm trying to achieve, have a look on Crocus website they sell it :))

I will have a nose thanks for the tips will come in useful

and I am further South than you , so finding the correct spot

No probs Gg, hope you find a place for it, have a look see what you think :)
