I never wear green - that's because my school uniform was bottle green. i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd161/GWDAdmin1/Smilies/Default/rolleyes.gif I don't have green furnishings, either, but in the garden/countryside it's soothing. i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd161/GWDAdmin1/Smilies/Default/smiley.gif

Thanks

I thought I knew it. Thinking about it I used to get a problem with the leaves, lots of tiny holes. Is it prone to be attacked by any specific insect.......Any ideas ?

I found the cutting I have ;D no holes in the leaves thankfully.

I've got one here and one at the allotment. My flowers are much more flat looking.

Jasmine,Auricula,Ladygardener,maggy,isabella,

It is Phlox paniculata Mystic Green !! I had forgotten that I had bought it (on a whim) and it was the first time that it really flowered this year - very big flowers as well...the bees and butterflies are wild about it !!
