Thanks, T. I saw this at Chelsea and thought it was beautiful. I put it on my wishlist, so I'm pleased to see it for sale now.

Thanks Tet . . . yes, I made a note of this when it was shown on TV earlier this year - absolutely gorgeous as far as I remember, but (sadly) I cannot "see" the link you gave us. P'raps I should try Copy and Paste?!

Yes - success! Have you tried ordering it yet Tet? Really grateful to you for the reminder . . . xx

Tetrarch - it was on the Hardy's Plants stand at Chelsea and I ordered it at their nursery pretty well there and then. Anyone who has difficulty getting hold of one could try them

How do, BA, long time no see my friend...how's the gimpy leg? Hope you are well. Will take time out to pm you later this week, when I have got a few social obligations and birthdays out of the way.
Its a bit pricey, but I have the levelleii, which is similar but this really is such a beauty, I cant resist. They also have a few wood anemones which are veerry pretty. I bought a potentilla (herbaceous) recta Sulphurea there (might have got that a bit wrong, but not enough to worry about) that has flowered all summer and autumn and still going. Great plant..yellow of course.

Beautiful plant isn't it? I might try one next year, but this year I have removed loads of anemones...they are a bit rampant in my soil!

Is that those pretty white doubles Karen? Nemorosa or something like that? If you dont want them...

I'm behind Tet in the queue, Karen!! Keep nearly ordering a mass of Anemones, but really just want white ones . . .

:(( just realised it sounds as if we're too late . . .
