First flowers on my Sweet Peas Tutenkamun  Small but a gorgeous shade of blue. They were really easy to grow; fast, naturally branching, and seem to be drought tolerant. Very glad I gave them a try ;D  |

Hi SO, My book says it's called Lithodora, but I've always called mine Lythospermum. I don't know if they're the same thing.  |

Thanks Chuckles - good job that I didn't photo the whole plant, which is leggy and has flopped over!!!!I forgot to put some supports in as usual.
Things are flowering at the wrong times here this year and at the moment there are so many things on the go, I am afraid that towards August there won't be much left to flower.

It is, and I've got no idea where it came from because I didn't plant it. The only thing I can think of is that I sowed some wild flower seeds in that particular bed when I first moved in and it came from those...any other theories? Ta Plocket!

Either from the wild-flower seeds Drunken - some take a couple of years to come, or perhaps from the birds - in one end and out the other!!! ;D

Yours is well ahead of mine.
That's stunning!
