Title: A little bit of colour
Post by: Grandma on December 02, 2006, 09:06:58

This was taken yesterday (01 December). It had just stopped raining but was so dark the camera ordered me to switch on the flash!

A real little cheerer-upper! (Sorry the dead leaves look so mucky but the blackbirds love kicking them about!)

Hello Supersprout! Beautiful, isn't it? No, no idea of name! Bought one plant some years ago and it self-seeded all over the place - and came true to type, too.  Half of Worthing now have some of its offspring! Would be pleased to send you some if any babies appear!  Thanks, Val
