I don't know Gardengnome - the other vareities i have don't usually get even this big, so your guess is as good as mine. Have you Sandra - do you know the variety name?

I like it, Angie - it has a lovely pattern and symmetry about it.

It does, does'nt it, i have 4 different varieties now, some of them i know flower not sure about the others, they are such interesting plants, do you have any Spritz?

Nope. Not sure what I'd do with them - I don't have a patio or anything.

i have some of the blue ones that flower orange/yellow/pink - they really are amazing - can send you one if you like and i am sure you will find a space for him! ;-) once you have them you will fall in love with them. they can go in the bed but need protection in the winter, but i usually just take off the side shoots from any in beds and pot them up instead, they are so easy to propergate. i have also seen them grown as house or conservitory plants so lots of options
