A shubby perennial to 12" with leaves colouring in autumn, and blue flowers.
Lost one of these 20 years ago.

Ours hasn't looked so good this year, very scruffy and hardly any flowers....

Bought 3 plug plants from Ebay, arrived a bit squashed, put this one in the ground and 2 in pots, all have perked up.

I am going to hard prune them when they have finished flowering, to see if they bush out more....

Mine 3 are only small, so I probably will just pinch them back a bit, late Autumn to early Winter.
