That's really interesting poppysue. I've ordered S pendula and S wanneri in the RHS seed exchange. I hadn't heard of this one though. I used to have and love wanneri
Nice photos

Thanks phil. It's a goner now. I tore it out. Don't ask me why... I guess it was just bugging me at the time and I wanted his spot.

I had to go look it up. That does look interesting... & It's a lovely color. I'll have to keep an eye out for it.

I had it on one of my raised beds and it flowered on and on. A very unusual colour, sort of between blue and purple.
Do hope i get some seed in the distribution :)
