Blue rockery flower ID please

KarenDKarenD Posts: 21
Hello, does anyone recognise this low growing pretty flower please? The flower spikes are no more than two inches tall and they seem to change from blue to pink as they age. This is our third summer in this garden and I'm still finding plants I'm yet to identify! Positioned in full sun on North Somerset clay.

Thanks for your help

    Me too. Some UK sites say 'Crater Lake Blue'  flowers May and June, others until the first frost. V confusing. As ever.

    Thanks for your help Marlorena!

    It is gorgeous Fire and now I know what it is I might be able to look after it properly. I'll let you know if it's still flowering after June.
