Echium has grown over the last two years and is now 6ft, next year it should flower.

It will flower next year if it survives the winter T&T. Although technically a biennial it usually takes 3 years here. I have an Alba that I am watching with great anxiety, that should flower next year (it's third).

I hope so, it's done great so far. But we are supposedly in for a cold winter so i have wrapped him up in fleece. I have 5 others all grown at the same time, that are a third of the size and in the sun, this one is on the shady side of the garden.
