Yes. They are small flowers but totally fascinating. This will bloom like beejayzuz from now until late autumn.

I've put a pot of 4 into the garden, but I don't think it'll flower this year, then I can uplift the pot and overwinter somewhere warmer.

Depending on the species they can bloom quite quickly.

I potted on all the seedlings into 3 larger pots, 2 are still in the conservatory and twice as large as the pot sunk into the ground.
