    it may be a struggle to reach the top, but once your over the hill your problems start.

      I think roitelet is right, it's probably Erisymum 'Bowles Mauve'

          Definitely Bowles Mauve. One of the best plants for a sunny garden. I bought one in Dundee Morrisons in January 2018, started flowering last March and hasn't stopped since. Think it cost £1.20, so 8.5p a month so far.
          Mostly flowers, some fruit and veg, at the seaside in Edinburgh.

            The plant isn't very long lived but apparently it's easy to grow from cuttings. Now is a good time to take them
