Made the mistake of buying a house with a river at the bottom of the garden. Constantly floods and also contains arsenic from an old mill nearby.

Verbena Bonariensis doesn’t grow in my garden but this Rigida seems to be romping away!

It like my too much! Constantly pulling up self seeders and moving them! Love this one 💜

Yes that’s what I was hoping @hayleyaj but apart from an odd single stem we got nothing! This one is more bushy and doesn’t fall about so much so perfect!

That quite strange as they grow anywhere! Maybe try moving them. They do live full sun ☀️

@hayleyaj Our garden is built on a tin mine and contains Arsenic too. It’s a nightmare!
