    I'd like this in my garden but don't know it's name (this one is in my next door neighbour's garden). The blooms look like hats fit for Ascot!

      It's a shame you're not near me, I have one I want to get rid of.

      Why? Is it problematic? I'm just looking for something that colour that's not too dense in appearance and puts on height quickly.

      Not problematic at all - just one of those impulse buys that I haven't found a place for and no longer want :noidea:
