The message
from "BAC" contains these words:
"Oxymel of Squill" wrote in message

I have an inwards corner of the house, traps the sun most of the day, but
it's also a soak away when the rain butt is full so can be a bit boggy for
any plant that likes dry feet.

Want something colourful / impressive / fragrant, maybe 10 ft tall
eventually.

Any suggestions gratefully received


What about lavatera maritima, quite easy to grow, likes sun and plenty of
water, gives a good show?


And does well in this neck of the woods (I'm watching you, O of Sq!) but
tends to unexplained fits of sudden death, not always associated with
frost.
