Pretty. My white ones are flowering in the border so probably not early. They catch me out each year, Sheila.

Thanks Ange. Come to think of it, my white ones are also flowering in the border in the back garden, so they must know what they’re doing 🙂.

These are lovely flowers & spread & naturalize with ease! Back in the early 70s I planted some of these in my parents' garden. They were still growing in the garden when I left to go to Spain in '72. When I returned from Spain 22 years ago they were still growing & flowering - only the garden had become far too small for them & they had spread into every tiny crack & crevice in the garden path & into the street all around the house. Even now they flower every year &, unless by brother who still lives in our parents' house has killed them off with weedkiller, they should be flowering right now!

There are some that I know of not far from where we live that also flower every year & grow as wild plants! I see them flower every year & I always take photos of them. I did the same again this year about a week ago.

That’s wonderful David … lovely to know that they will spread so abundantly. Thank you!
