Yes, and I'm waiting anxiously for her to open! I liked her general form/shape, as well as the clusters. I returned to the nursery I bought her at, and thought about buying a few more. I could work her into several areas. I do like to use white/green as a break between colours that otherwise jar the eye a bit. Plus white shows up so well in our very typical grey climate. Oh, and then there's pale yellow which I'm also enamoured with...

With the excess rain, the foliage on many things has turned that sickly palid yellow-green. The soil is still too cool for the plants to be able to take up the necessary nutrients, so a great portion of the annuals I've planted look pathetic. The Slugs are sure enjoying themselves, though.
All this will be forgotten when we hit 85° - perhaps in August! Ah well, this rain is great for the soil - cannot forget the worms...
