Simply Grow..and it's an ill wind....

Campanula lactiflora 'Pritchard's Variety' is one of my favourite perennials for cutting.

I had to cut my plant of this back hard in June (see here) but it has given me lots of good bunches of late flowers plus enough for little jars of them to sit around the place, the fresh and pretty blue making me think it is still summer here!

The card is Lemons on Grey by Mary Ford, and the painting is Japanese Steam by one of my favourite artists Christine McArthur.

There really is nothing nicer than fresh flowers around the house is there? These are a beautiful blue too.

They bring a room alive I think. I love them.

They are such a beautiful blue and the white jug sets them off just right. My friend has a big patch of them in her garden and I always admire them, I only have the low ground-hugging type.
