I will second that. I used to grow it, but it did not last the winter and I had to bring it into the greenhouse. Grindle did say it wasn't hardy so it has been kept frost free all winter. It was worth the effort.

My Hemerocallis are just opening. Just had to show you this Salpiglossis! Pyrethrum, aka Tanacetum. Rather a pretty Dianthus - I think it's 'Bailey's Celebration'.

Lovely G, my hemerocallis are still in bud. Love the Salpiglossis, I've often thought about growing them, might have to try for next year they're pretty

I grew some from seed last year and they weren't lovely colours like this - I bought two plants last month, just because of the colour. An impulse buy. I wonder if seeds are available for brighter more interesting colours?

I'll be pleased if your research throws up some seeds to grow these, Louise!

Rosie may know where to get them, I'm sure I remember she grows them a lot
