I bought some last back end and am quite pleased with them...they remind me of a pulmonaria though how they change colour from bud to old flower- the buds are a purple colour.

I've sown some achusa this year and the babies survived the hailstorm which wiped out so many other things. I'll be concentrating on whites and rich reds next year.
