A Plant ID please

I have found this plant in our garden and although I have looked through some books that I have, and have also asked a couple of people, I have up to now not been able to find out what it is.

I do hope one of you will have an idea.

The leaves are very blue-silver which the photo doesn't really show.

Thanks a lot

Oh Rita - yes you have found it. I googled as well and found that it is Zenobia Pulverulenta "Blue Sky".

The leaves are really bluey - lovely plant and seems very robust.

Thanks again
