    What's the blue flower in the first couple of photos, @kindredspirit ? It's absoloutely stunning. Love the Fosters Gold saxifrage too.

    @Verdun and @2nd_bassoon. That Boykinia Jamesii is not what it came labelled as but is actually a Hepatica. Wrongly labelled at the nursery. (Must give the nurseryman a clip around the ear.) :) :)

            Yep, longk. When you see it in the flesh, it looks almost artificial but it stops you in your tracks.
