Surprisingly fast growing, plenty of flowers. Product image implies multiple colors on the one plant, however that hasn’t happened as yet. One plant has been a lovely deep purple, the other has been bi-colored, white and magenta. Hoverflies seem to like them, a couple of bees have had a fly-past and thought better of it. Presumably because the flowers are so tiny (and the bees around here aren’t) they’ve decided not without scaffolding and a safety harness. Hopefully next year as the plant grows and spreads they may feel there is sufficient support to risk it.

These were rather potbound* but they seem to be happy and growing away well now in the ground. *It may be that this wildflower type of plant prefers that?

This plant has perked right up after being planted in the rockery and soon started flowering. Only two flowers so far, and looking forward to seeing what colours emerge with other flowers.
