Lovely airy plant and don't the butterflies love it :-)

Hi Kathy ? yes, nice but seed around which isn't really a problem. Funnily enough the butterflies don't seem interested with these too busy on the budjelia. I break the rules and plant at the front of the border as like you say, they are airy.

Love it! And look at yours all standing up tall, not all battered and broken by winds! I've given up on this for that reason.

Awww Karen. Shame yours get battered by the wind. Wind does whip across here at times but not so much in summer luckily.

Love the colour of these I see them as like a structurel plant with its shaped stems.

Yes I love this too, and as you say Dawn, self seeds everywhere, very strong seedlings that soon transplant. That reminds me this year I've so many baby foxgloves coming, and mostly in the tubs!

I do too Thrup.
Hi Janey. I've already transplanted some? So airy can be squeezed in all around! I like foxgloves, even though they seed themselves in inconvenient places.

Ive put some of these in this year, pleased with them, hope they will seed so I can bulk them up a little :)

I'm sure they will Daylily. I was undecided if they were weeds or not when they first appeared and hoe'd them off but so many seeded, not a problem. I've moved them into different areas now.
