    How about some Linaria Woo? If you like helping the bees out Linaria Purpurea Canon J Went likes a sunny spot and is real easy from seed and will flower this year. It's a perennial......

    There's also Linaria Purpurea which is a purple colour .......

    And Linaria Purpurea Browns White or Springside White.......

    The bees will be all over them and love you for it!

          Your lawn is disappearing fast Woo, I have a feeling that new border might become wider at some point. :)

              You're quite welcome to come and dig up my front lawn, there's still far to much to mow. :)

                      ...And good evening to you Woo. :) I don't see any reason why you shouldn't plant them now, we're into March and hopefully, not tempting fate, any heavy frosts have gone. Perhaps we should ask @ARMANDII for his opinion too.

                      If they're arriving in pots, Woo, they're no more tender than Roses in pots and we can plant them at any time of the year. They're not exactly fast growers though and I don't know what size you bought them in but with your knowledge and experience they will be fine.:coffee::thumbsup::snork:

                        I'm on the look out for one for this garden (Mr "M" murdered the one I had at our previous home :th scifD36: )
                        Wishing you many happy winters with them and those lovely, silvery, long catkins :blue thumb:
