                That hypericum one sounds ace. Full sun to full shade, any soil, fully hardy, drought tolerant. Fast growing. Sounds like a wonder plant.

                It also takes over unless you manage it - I had one in my front garden which went bonkers every year.

                You had better watch out, zigs :hate-shocked:. Sheal's an Essex girl - but her name isn't Sharon so you should be OK.

                We have it in our garden - but we are in Essex :dbgrtmb:

                  Miss Jiff (OH) is an ex Essex girl, she's not a Sharon either, we've got it in our garden to stop her getting homesick ! Do you think they'll change the O level Geog. curriculum? :roflol:

                    The other counties have been trying to cut out Essex for a long time! :mad:
