Is it a lilac colour? Nice.

Yes Siris, pale lilac. Most of the others are various darker blue/purple. One has seeded in a small urn, which is totally the wrong place, but it's flower looks double.

Guard that Double? Might turn out nicely. Never grown Trads. from seed.

They came from RHS when I was a member many years ago. Last year I dug up lots and potted up. They're just about to flower so if you want any please say.

I have put two pics on Siris, the one in the urn and another in a stone sink. The first looks like extra petals as the one yesterday has closed. The other is in a stone sink where it definitely shouldn't be and has extra petals in the centre.

Am still mithering about whether to say yes, as I have 2 yellow leaved ones, one with blue flowers one purply. I wonder if they will produce seed and yellow leaved offspring? You set me going collecting Heuchera seed.
