so small in stature but so pretty, did have two clumps but this is the only one to survive.

No idea Waddy, it just curled up and gave in. It was in a good spot too, or so I thought. It lasted two years and then just gave up. I do think though in the border where it was the mole is quite active and sometimes I wonder if he uproots things and they never settle back down after a dry spell. Will keep an eye open for it and try it again in the border. This one is in a damp spot so maybe it was too dry in the side border further up the garden. :O(

Do you know, for a second I thought you meant you were keeping an eye out for the mole!...it's been a long day, ...

lol while it stays in the borders I am not keeping an eye out for it, if it starts to dig the grass (what little is left) I shall find a man who can sort it out lol :O) It actually breaks up the soil very well in the borders, the only trouble is as it goes along the borders it takes bulbs with it and they appear in places I was not expecting them to be. lol.

Oh well, I suppose it's nice to get surprise blooms appearing. ☺
