So has mine - perhaps it is the time of year, as I have only had it for
a
couple of months - the petals are falling everwhere! Margret

Mine has just lost al its purple coloured petals.
Is this normal for this time of year or am I doing something wrong?

I bought mine about 2 months ago too Margret. From what I have read they
are
supposed to flower till late Autumn. I hope it isn't dying its a lovely
plant

I am not sure what is happening to your plants but I am puzzled as they
should only just be coming into flower and then only if they kept their
leaves over winter, so if you have had it a short while, it may just be out
of synch. I have found mine likes to be kept cold and dry over winter but
well watered in summer.
I don't know that that helps much!
