Fabulous colour!

This is the same colour as 'Burgundy Bonnets' which I lost. The leaves are very different - sort of curly - and the plants had stood outdoors during the winter at the Nursery, so it's hopeful.

These are so nice and very good for the insects which we all need.

I bought two - one has this one flower and the other hasn't - lol....but it's good to be able to see what you are buying, isn't it!

It looks the same, but I think it had a different name. So you may be lucky.

Well, the small Nursery where I found it had lost all sorts of plants in the winter, they had left these outside and they were still alive and kicking...so maybe?? just maybe???

We have to, don't we...otherwise we'd just play safe and only grow utterly hardy plants, with no risk-taking at all.
