The message
from Bobbie contains these words:

LOL I wonder if it would be any good at all asking a question about
gardening?

Oh yes, if you hand round (say) a few glasses of Hobgoblin, or Old Bob.
Welcome to the fireside, BTW.

I keep seeing this person posting URG rules, is he a joker?

I have an idea it's a 'she', BICBW-IOA

Two chaps who are obviously so knowledgeable about beer and lager will
no doubt be able to tell me if Bowles Mauve Erysimum will flower next
year too.

How much beer have you given it?

I was always under the impression this was a perennial, but
was told today that it was not.
It has flowered prolifically for the past 3 years.

It's perennial then. (apparantly, anything which lives for three or more
years is a perennial - the term doesn't mean 'immortal'...)

I have done nothing

That's an admission

but cut it back each Spring, This year is has been in flower and is
still in flower, from March.

Oh.

I could of course look on Google, but this looks a lot more fun, I might
even learn if Real Ale is any good for killing mozzies.

If you hit them with the bottle, yes, very good.
