What a gorgeous blue. have not come across this flower before, is it an annual or perennial, and how tall does it grow

Thanks :-)
Hepatica nobilis is a perennial (wild flower) and grows to about 10 cm. Can be found in Europe from Skandinavia and down south to the Pyrenees except from the west of France and Great Britain. So that's probably why you haven't seen it :-)
You can also get a lot of cultivars with singel and double flowers in white, pink and blue (very, very expensive)

You can grow them successfully here. I have one and its doing fine. Have a look at the link Twin has given for Edrom nurseries. I got mine from them.

Thanks Amblealice I have had a peek and also added link to my own forum.

I am about to make a new alpine bed in my own garden so will be looking for nice new plants.
