I love this plant which is in my neighbour's garden and I intend to take some cuttings from it over the weekend . It is a hardy evergreen perennial and flowers in May/June . It loves to be in a very sunny spot and likes free draining soil

That does look great.

I love this plant too. Mine is at the foot of Viburnum 'Mariesii' and is "climbing" up through it, looking quite pretty against the white flowers!

This is fantastic; every time I see a photo of this plant I realize I need to get a few. However, a very sunny spot with free draining soil is precisely what I DON'T have.
