Always learning new stuff here. I could find a space for some of them in my garden. A good excuse to browse Sarah Raven's site - which will no doubt have consequences

Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
Easy to grow from seed. Mine came from T&M. Flowers in the second year. Reliably perennial in a sunny spot. I do like Pink giant though, which I might try next time. Meanwhile I have half a dozen plants to find homes for.

It looks a little like one of the Heuchera family shaza.
Just what I thought Lb - the leaves are a dead-ringer - but those flowers are very impressive for a Huechrea
Whatever it is I think it's lovely
