    I bought a packet of seeds of this three years ago. Not knowing that it was a wild flower. It did not look out of place in the border. But I did later replace it with more normal border plants - but it keeps coming back. I have another one of these in the border currently - I haven't the heart to chuck it out, at least untill it has finished flowering.
