I liked the look of it, I always did tend to go for scruffy types though, drove my Mum to distraction ;D

It looks just like the one that Jasmine sent me last year Missy, mine is just starting to flower but the spikes are quite short, but she is a baby & was being bullied by a nearby Brunnera until I took action.

Mine are a bit wedged into the lower bit of terrace so they sort of lean on other stuff!

My FIL used to buy them and then after they had stopped flowering he bunged them in his shed and then later outside in the shade for the summer, then re-potted them for the autumn and took them back into the house to flower...
