I love that combination; a lot of the bed I described above has ended up purple and yellow as I tended to buy cheap stuff for there. I would like to introduce more blue. I'm not sure a geranium would survive the drought conditions out there, but I could dig out a clump from elsewhere and try it
This stuff is not hard to grow at all you can do it from seed sold at the garden centre, if you like it you might also quite like Mallow which is super easy from seed
Every summer I sow the annual white form of Lavatera, very rewarding, big trumpet -like flowers. I just sprinkle the seeds around and cover lightly with a bit of compost. It is a good space filler and flowers for some time.

I have got the Linum Pernne; flax elsewhere and it certainly does toerate dry conditions. I love that blue, a plant that is really worth having.
Sounds lovely

Aaaargh! Mallow is pink
