Campanula alpestris; Edraianthus niveus; Penstemon pumilus seedling; Asperula daphneola, bought this year; and your own Primula scotica, far from home and doing surprisingly well in these dry conditions:

Great plants, Lori!  I'm distressed to hear how long you've been waiting for Clematis scottii.  It's the same story here, but I didn't realize it was going to be an even longer wait.  Nice to see my favorite Genista depressa - and the wonderful Edraianthus was new to me (the blue one).  What do you know about it?

Well worth the wait though. That's a stunner!

Hedysarum coronarium
Roscoea 'Harvington Evening Star'  still flowering.  This has been amazing with 5 or 6 flowers so far on each of 4 stems in the greenhouse and the one outside is nearly as good.  I got one flower each on two white plants and 'Monique' and 'Red Gurkha' have still to flower.
Campanula thessala - the best one I have grown- the true colour is not as blue
