Hey! this one I know! In english: Lobelia or trailing lobelia in latin : Lobelia erinus it's an annual which will self-seed in warm climates: popular for hanging baskets, but does need plenty of water. Lots of colours are available, and I'm not sure of the variety name of this particular one. Victoria |

Victoria Many thanks to Victoria and Iris, You're right they must be lobelia - they're not really blue at all, some shade of purple. |
