I can't believe that this is still alive, let alone flowering after the frosts!

Oh poor you Alex, I will see what seeds he sent me, if they are the same I will share with you. that Karen is very naughty, Lol

That's how it looks during the long days of summer Karen! The colour is very different with the short daylight hours. It's actually very exposed, but is getting the chop tomorrow and going in my Dads greenhouse for the winter.
