    Persicaria affinis 'Darjeeling Red', struggles a bit here ... but we're on very free-draining gritty loam.  I love it tho', so I keep persevering.  :D 

    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

    Sounds like me with lavender.😀
    Gardening on the wild, windy west side of Dartmoor. 

  • All Persicarias seem to love my garden and they are useful plants but take some watching. Firetail is relatively well behaved, expanding fairly slowly, P. bistorta with the AGM makes great swathes and seeds itself into new places and the runaway winner is P. campanulata with very different flowers,  pretty, blousy pale pink and white and that one I swear if you stood and watched it for 10 minutes you'd see it moving! Fortunately they are all quite shallow rooted so easy to get out :)
