Late-flowering, probably C. viticella or C. x jackmannii, and a
good blue (preferably deep blue), NOT purplish.

Any suggestions?

No, but I have a fondness for those. If you'd like a small purple
lightly-scented one with a yellow centre as well, I'll layer one for
you.

Thanks very much, but I have rather run out of room for them!
The blue one is a "special order".

Charlie, what's the name of that lovely shrubby, scented one I got from you
at Hestercombe? Is it C.quercifolia?

I don't remember, does C. heracleifolia ring a bell? or maybe C. x
jouiniana praecox (but thats bigger and not so scented)

C.heracleifolia is the one. How I could look at the leaves and not remember
that is beyond me! Thanks so much.

J. Praecox is very energetic! Mine doesn't seem to smell but it does
almost cover a Osmanthus um, delavyii I think, (holly like leaves,
flowers that are scented in late summer)
J. praecox isn't what i would call a memorable plant, it's flowers, or
rather the flowers on mine are quite big but a sort of icy blue to grey
blue and difficult to see at a distance.
Roots really easily though!
