Can anyone recall the perennials featured in the BBC Hampton Court
programme that are about a foot tall and flower throughout the summer?
There was an interview with a grower who was displaying at the show who
was desperately trying to encourage people to look on this flower more
favourably. I'd search the RHS plant finder, but I don't really have
enough to go on so I'm hoping someone is less of a dweeb than me!

Hi Jon,

There was a nursery featured (sorry, don't remember the name) who specialise
in Diasias and Nemesias. These plants do have a long flowering period, and
are often sold as bedding. I believe, however, that it may be possible to
overwinter them with a little care.
