Thank you, Julia, that is good to know. I wasn’t aware, so, I’ll be keeping an eye on this! It’s planted next to a euonymus and tree fern, oh and a hosta.

I agree, Sue, it certainly appealed to me last week! I find plants pass me by at times…only to see them on here and think - I’ll give that a go maybe! Hoping it’ll do ok and attract lots of wildlife 🤞

Thanks Klahanie, I noticed its other name was bee balm! Very apt - I hope! I don’t blame you - hummingbirds! Fantastic!
