Hi, this one is not far away so I just went and measured it; it's a little taller but not by much - 35cm. cheers, Kylie

Thanks, yes not as tall as I had imagined. That flower is a deep colour, very interesting.

Definitely a deeper colour than anything else we have seen here - it's not just a product of the photography. The flowers are finished now but I'll see if we spot it in the same place next year.
