    I didn't take it, J did. It has leaves that are purple underneath and blue/purple spkes of flowers that creep.

            It spreads a lot @Victoria. I once planted some on Beryl's parents' grave and it spread to all the other graves around and in between them all too :whistle:

                    Oh, I planted 1 too. It really spreads like mad. Had to pull loads out afterwards. Nit sure, if I should keep it despite lovely flowers.
