When I visited England, I was amazed to see them planted in the garden and not in pots. Here they would never survive.They are lovely.annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01668006270534204954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-812046665751901579.post-80741954304087501292011-08-22T22:39:29.069+01:002011-08-22T22:39:29.069+01:00I also think they have a very feminine quality...s...I also think they have a very feminine quality...so beautiful!

I grew it for sentimental reasons, because I actually find them hard to integrate into the kind of planting I like. I also really love the wild fucshia hedges you get in Scotland and elsewhere. Then we moved in with FIL and MIL and I discovered that FIL loves them. So I think they will be a feature of future gardens, and I am about to gain another new one, a beautiful white one, courtesy of a blogging friend. So maybe eventually I will work out how to use them.Janet/Plantaliscioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15605580157193047780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-812046665751901579.post-63618523080520319162011-08-22T11:23:15.980+01:002011-08-22T11:23:15.980+01:00That is a lovely flower.
