Your Grandma will be thrilled, Charlie! Don't forget that Lithodora's like slightly acid soil, so if she hasn't got that, it might pay to add a bit of ericaceous compost to the soil.
Thanks Charlie. It was so tiny to begin with that it's been a real thrill to see it come through the winter with so much growth. I'm wondering , as per SwissSue's post if I must have put ericaceous compost in there instead of multi-p for it to do so well. It's such a lovely colour when it blooms early Spring, really cheering.
Thank you so much for all of your help! I have finally managed to track two down this afternoon (I went to countless garden centres - some didn't know what they were! some were sold out and some hadn't grown any this year!) I've just shown my grandma the post and shes very appreciative for all recommendations you have made
