Red valerian
For a few years now, I have coveted next door's red/dark rose valerian. I have only pink and white. I have waited for nature to take its course.
Oh joy! Three have appeared in my front garden, but I want them at the back.
Can I transplant one or should I wait and collect seeds?
In London. Keen but lazy.

I'd transplant one, they all mix up together and you might not get red seedlings

Ok nut. Thanks
I'm wel jel B3. I want one
It is one of those plants that grows out of walls along the roadside here - some people love it and others treat it as a weed. I am not sure if it is spread by the birds or the wind or perhaps both.
I love them but they are everywhere in my town, and I mean everywhere. There is no garden without valerian.
Yes. I have to keep the pink and white ones under control, but it's the red one I really like. I wonder which colour is the dominant one .

My daughter has a small patch by her front door with a very decrepit brick wall twixt her and neighbour. Only moved in 18 months ago so has waited to see what she gets (Christmas in Spring, part of the fun) and then invited me to name them! What! So I managed aubretia, campanula, sedum but was stumped by a deep red spike of flower growing in the wall.
Hooray, its valerian, just two to go and I've got the lot
My neighbour bought one a few years ago - most front garden down the road have valerian growing in them now
