Johnsons blue

Hi all

Rather than buy I thought a swap would be good .

I am after Geranium Johnstons Blue also Varigated Yellow Loosestrife

I have lots to swop:

• Day Lily a couple of variety's to choose from

• My own seedlings of Agapanthus ready to pot on (1 year old) and they will romp away in a bigger pot might be small now !!! but.....

Let me know, PM if you want or have a chat on the main forum up to you

Spruce, I have a blue geranium but I don't know which one it is, if you can find a picture for me please, I'll see if it's the one you're after.

 

Hi Sheal and Armandi:D

Its the leaves that are important

Hope the link works , I owe you agapanthus already Armandii

Geranium 'Johnson's Blue', Geranium 'Johnson's Blue', Geranium ibericum 'Johnson's Blue' - Shoot

 

I have both Spruce :D, my 'Johnsons Blue' does have a label but still never sure as I also have 'Magnifucum' which is practically the same just flowers a bit later? here are a couple of pictures of mine see what you think:D


Geranium 'Johnsons Blue'

Lysimachia 'Alexander' or the triffid:D did dig up loads of this and put on the compost in autumn but do still have loads sure I can spare some.

 

Spruce it does look like the one I have. Below is a picture of it coming into bloom for the second time. Sorry the picture isn't very good and the flowers are showing lavender but they are actually bright blue. It's deciduous of course and if you are interested I'll split it and send you part of it as it's just a rootball at the moment.

 

Hi Simbad.
I've also got both. I didn't know the proper name. Here they're known as:-
1. Old Fashioned Geranium
2. The Green & yellow Weed thing.

Afterthought.
Just in case it wasn't generally known, both are thoroughly tough as old boots and can be hacked up, transplanted, given away etc. and are 100% guaranteed to grow wherever they get put.
Ideal for the new starter that isn't sure they can grow anything - these you can CERTAINLY grow successfully

 

Trust it to be you , and you have both

Now what day lily can I tempt you with or agapanthus

I will pop into the greenhouse as I do have a few small divisons that I know will have you drooling I will go and look now

Back in 5 mins me off to the greenhouse
