Alternative plant
Hello and good morning everyone well this week only Wednesday so for the last two day I’ve been cutting my hedge and I think I’ve made a small dent in the garden 12 trips to the local tip with garden waste (big trailer) and a car boot full as well I’ve even found a car front end in a corner of the garden LOL.
Any way I would like to find a plant similar to Livings stone daisy that is Perennial but I can’t think of any? Colour I’m after is blue and pink for a border to my front garden.

Blue is hard but pink is easy. There are various Lamprnathus in pink and Delosperma. Mind none of these Mesambrainthemum type plats are truly hardy.
Berghill thank you
what about blue and yellow or white ??
James
Orange and purple is the colour I think I'm going for
But I didn't get a colour wheel can some one post a pic of it ??
James
Is this what you mean? You can find them on Google.
I have bought some plug plants Papaver 'DOUBLE TANGERINE GEM' and would like a dark Blue daisy like plant to go with it or even a corn flower that will flower at the same time as the Papaver the flowering posion is full sun
I also have bought some Koi flowers that are so so fantastic and ORANGE they are the star in my garden. I've never see anything like them before

Opps and thank you Lizzie and Verdun for the kind responce thank you
