If I managed to keep these I could confirm the name.I write the name on the bottom of the label now aswell where it wont fade.

I started laminating printed labels as nothing else lasts in our exposed situation. I have been getting behind with a lot in the garden but neglected or not they have done really well. I do like the pink buds before the flowers open. The yellow throat on the petals is attractive too. This is still in the pot you sent to me so maybe they do need to be left alone to manufacture good roots. I think the seeds probably came from the 13/14 SRGC seed exchange. I only recently planted the one I grew from seed. I think it will be quite limey because the rockery was built using the rubble left over after the chimney was rebuilt.
