Cherry & Teresa..........those names don't ring any bells lol! They are out in the garden, I bought three of them, fairly mature plants early last year when they were in bloom and they put on a lovely show...............they grow quiet thick and bushy with plenty of foliage and the blossoms are made up of a variety of smaller flowers, which make one big flower to the stem...........they look gorgeous when they are out..........but this year, they just have not bothered flowering...........wondering if the weather has been the cause? One is all pink and the other two are a mauvy blue colour. To look at and touch they are like thick paper. Just can't recall the name for them? Jen
