We fell in love with this plant the moment we saw it - and we think you will too! It's low and groundhugging, smothered in bright jazzy magenta and gold sweet pea flowers.

Growing in almost any fertile soil, totally cold hardy (it's an alpine) , needing almost no care - it's perfect for rockeries and patio pots too.
