    Hi @Mark56 yes I think it is Patricia but can't remember as we have had it a number of years and I expect the label is no longer readable.I love this one because once it starts flowering it goes on and on and we have had our monies worth out of it.:biggrin:

    Monty Don on Gardeners World last night was showing us how to take root cuttings from the hardy ones so I think I might have a go once it has finished flowering:smile:

                    Your Callistemon pallidus is really looking good @joolz68:dbgrtmb: it must be a few years old now as the seed was from my old plant in Weymouth.
