That's quite a change of colour, isn't? It's even better now!

I have been trying to spread O arenaria (as I still think of it) around as I think it’s a cracking plant, modest in size, easy to flower, easy to propagate.

It lives very happily in an unheated greenhouse but I’m not convinced it would like winter wet.
