With its beautiful yet confusing name, honesty is sometimes overlooked as common and dull. However it is a fantastic value plant with long lasting vibrant purple flowers in May followed by papery moon-like seed heads for winter displays in the home.
In my garden it self seeds and contrasts beautifully in May with lemon yellow flowers such as Geum ‘Lemon Drops’, Cheiranthus cheiri ‘Primrose Bedder’ and Trollius ‘Lemon Queen’.
