This cute little plant was only planted in the border last July (07) and already it's getting a little too big for it's boots! Hel.xxx.

I recall seeing the plant also along the coast of Yorkshire high up on the cliffs such a wonderful show of hot bright pinks aren't the gulls lucky?

Lol Islander hubby Bob always catches me out on 'old money' as I can never remember hardly any of it, I keep telling him I'm a baby! ;o) Hel.xxx
