I think this looks lovely but we haven't got it - yet. ;-) Charlie, do
you
have that one?

We bought one from Charlie a couple of years ago, it's an OK white but
wouldn't call it anything special. Mind you I'm into big bold colours now,
must be the dull weather of late.


I saw a pic of it in the Evison book and liked the frilly edge to the leaves
but if it's a very small flower, then it's probably not right for where I'd
like to grow it. I want to put it up either a yew or a Camellia, so perhaps
I'd be better going for C. Marie Boisselot?
One good thing about all this cool weather is that Tropaeolum speciosum,
growing through a yew hedge, is doing better than it has for a couple of
years.
