Picked up this little starter plant for only £3.99. I was taken by the flower colour.

Thank you, Ange and Julia. Hoping it thrives here. Ange, it does look quite nicely slotted beside the hosta. Thanks again.

What Ange said 😊
Is it on a slant or is it really tall? I love the pebbles you have too as crazy as it sounds I’d love to walk on them the pebbles that is 😂 it has its health benefits, I promise lol.

My garden is on a slight incline, Cal. Rises as you walk to the back/bottom end.
I’ve pebbles and stones in all the bed/border areas. I know what you mean about health benefits! A bit of reflexology I’m guessing! ☺️

Lovely choice Kate, and hopefully you’ll be enjoying it all summer long. Looks good on the pebbles too!

Bet that can be challenge sometimes when choosing certain plants. It does sound lovely Kate 😊 Yup spot on, it helps with lowering blood pressure, balance and your overall mental and physical fitness too 😊

That is a good price too. A real Yorkshire bargain :o)

Do you have any problems with all pebbles in your borders, Kate? Many weeds? Interested to know how they work as a mulch..

Thank you, Sheila 😊

Cal, I thought having pebbles and cobbles would prevent me from removing, adding more plants etc…but, noooo.
Yes, reflexology is definitely beneficial. I love my yoga classes, I’d hate to stop them!

It was a bargain, Eileen, but a Lincolnshire one! ☺️

Ange, we get no weeds at all, thankfully! It’s difficult to feed my plants, but, I do endeavour to find alternative ways!

Thanks, Kate. Worth a try.

😂 but we wouldn’t see lovely editions like this one if that happened lol. I’d love to be able to do yoga but I just think I’m not made to be bendy as much as I know it is good for me, my body just won’t have it 😆

Looks good with the contrast of the hosta colours. My favourite sort of pink, Kate.
