    I have eeerrrrmmm... acquired 3 little stems of this which I hope to root in water. Looks useful for a container /hanging basket. Well anywhere at the front really. It's spreading in the Almonry garden through a rockery; P1040544.JPG excuse the grass and dandelion!!

    Lamium? Is that a lemon balm mixed in or a green-leaved bit of the same?

    Acquired? Did it leap into your handbag, plants are known to do that sometimes, I find?

      By the pole - to the right is an upright stem piece displaying its flower. The total green behind it was a polyanthus,

        Update - all 3 have rooted in water and have been potted up today. They will reside in the mini GH for a while. Haven't decided where they will be planted in the garden yet,
