I planted a pink one earlier in the year - I'm waiting for it to flower.

Sorry about the double comment. Our wifi connection was playing up, first refusing to submit my comment and then ending up with two. When this happens on GOY I can't find a way to delete my second comment!

I do that sometimes, Chris! I hit 'submit' twice and then don't know how to get rid of the second comment... lol.

lol, i still think you should submit the comment again Chris, as everything on this plant is in 3's lol - and Spritz, i invented that rule....but i have been very naughty this weekend....... i have been buying lots of plants...and filling gaps...i do still have one or two gaps to fill, but they need little things not big things if that makes sense...and me and Brooke are off on holiday in a couple of weeks so i have to be good.... i have set aside a few pennies to get a few bedding plants for Brooke to plant in her flower garden, but that really must be it for now..... have you seen my new Phlox plant....mmmmmmmm, and then there is the new Geranium, the Campanula that i simply had to have, not to mention the beautiful new Heuchera.....and that is to say but a few ...... see not lost my touch! lol
