I really do have to get one!

I love these 😍

Very unique indeed!💘😍

Thank you Janice @lovestogarden

This is a very recent acquisition. A clump dug up from a friend's mother in law's garden 👍 @valjones-hughes

I've always wanted one too Della. Bought one many years ago which died in less than a year & no success from seed @harebell

Thanks Shelley. You do see odd ones of this here in the UK, but they're certainly not common. This one's flowers seem more colourful than others I've seen before though 🤩👍 @ShelleySnyder

You are certainly welcome Jeff!💘😍

@jeatacake This is a beauty, I find the plants that do best for me are ones I get from other peoples gardens, perhaps its to do with similar conditions.

Thanks Katy @gjones

Thank you Joan. This came from North Wales, but the soil in that garden was clay like mine, so I'm hoping that it'll feel at home in my garden 😊 @joanb
