Thank you Hywel I have the name some where lol to look at it on the picture label it looked like a cabbage ? even the lady who owns the garden nursery said it but I thought I would try it.

moonlight , they do have a nice purple as well in the same series so keep a eye out for that one ....
its meant to be a tough plant and will survive the winter if in a well drained spot

I shall keep my eye open thank you do you know its name by any chance . Its good it will last winters.

its called "Blueberry Pie" deep lilac in colour with a green centre and a blue tint to the rear petals
If you can get your hands on it at this time of year is doubtful
Ask the lady in the garden center as it the same people where she got "Moonlight"
