Title: Plant Id please
Post by: amanda21 on June 03, 2008, 07:42:45
Cam anyone id this for me?  It was planted I think on a neighbouring plot but has now seeded in mine.  It's quite pretty so I don't want to get rid totally but I'd quite like to know what it is.  Thanks

It will seed everywhere but it's easy to pull out and the bee's love it. I have it in my garden....the seeds and plants relatively expensive to buy.

I bought some seeds on ebay last year. Can't remember how much though!
