Nice indeed Nicola.

Erigerons do very well in my garden. I don't have a white variety though!
I'll look out for that one you have featured here.
Isnt it a wonderful world to have such a marvellous and wonderful number of varieties of plants

have you tried the erigeron karviskianus? it's a fantastic plant, very very generous, absolutely "versatile" under the point of view of exposition/kind of soil / water need etc it blooms twice a year if you cut it back after the first vigorous blooming in spring and also very "invasive" and you'll find it spouting in the most unexpected places.... I'll post a little project about it in the next days.

Yes, Ive tried Erigeron karviskianus - a division from a garden I was visiting.
It survived for a few years on the edge of a bed in my garden. It didn't self seed here, unfortunately
Its a pretty, small little plant and if it does self seed I'm sure it would be easily removed from unwanted locations.
I will try it again if I see it available on my sprees and visits
