Forgotten what this is, flower is about  3cms across, and the plant is a weak climber about 80cms tall.

Hi Palustris - what a beautiful flower. It looks a bit like Codonopsis Convolvulacea. Does the name ring a bell?

Yes and yes. But they are a bit difficult to grow outside. I have not mastered their preferences yet. Believe it or not the blue ones are from seed sown last Spring and over wintered in the g/house.
