Lovely rich blue Siris.

Ours hasn't looked so good this year, very scruffy and hardly any flowers....

Bought 3 plug plants from Ebay, arrived a bit squashed, put this one in the ground and 2 in pots, all have perked up.

I am going to hard prune them when they have finished flowering, to see if they bush out more....

Mine 3 are only small, so I probably will just pinch them back a bit, late Autumn to early Winter.
