Notes: Purchased 2020: two small plants but neither thrived well perhaps because the potting compost soil is too rich. March 2021 – both plants looking healthy and full of bud.
June 2021: Died from neglect in the heat when transferred to new home before the actual move. May restock for the future Potted Cottage Garden
