I couldn't believe the difference in it after just one night's rain. Same applied to the dandelions and campanula.
I also have a well over grown hebe that needs replacing, but we have still not had any rain enough to even wet the ground. So it will have to wait. I will try and take cuttings as its pretty and the bees love it:0)
