Oh no blacky it's not but thanks for trying , its not the best picture but the leaves are soft and furry and the plant has grown to about 3 feet and the flowers are pink not red. It's been blooming all summer but I've no idea what it's called.

very good picture RBJ hope to keep it for a few years anyhow. Have split some of the plants and replanted them, looking good at the moment. |

Cracking plant, easily grown from seed. But quite short lived, up here anyway, don't think it likes wet too much. Who does?  |
