These do seed themselves, and are very welcome!

You are right, Tt - it did seed itself there - where from I have no idea. They do pop up in strange places.

Lovely Spritz.

:-) Haven't you got these, then? I could probably find a baby for you.

Not seen this type of sisyrinchium before.
It seems a good plant because gardens can lack colour at this time of year. Antirrhinums are one of the few reliable flowers I have currently producing June colour.
Yours contrasts well with the mauve flowers behind.

Thanks, Tt - I am so surprised that you say that some gardens don't have colour in them! I am just going to post some photos of my top border full of colour. At least when your new babies grow up, they'll help in your garden! All the ones I sent you are in flower now. :-)

Thanks, Clarice.

No Spritz I haven't had them for a few years. I did have the variegated variety but have no recollection of what happened to it. I do have the one that grows to about 5 inches in height and which has a lovely blue flower. It's common name is Blue eyed grass. Would you like to do a swap a little later in the year?

Yes - thanks. I'll seek out a baby for you.

Thanks Spritz. I'll divide one of mine and send a piece along.

It's easy to grow, Pp. One of the 'staples' in my garden. :-)
