Chevalier™ Evipo040(n). Launched at the famous Chelsea Flower Show in 2009.
An interesting plant that will produce single semi-double and fully-double flowers all at the same time on the same plant. Very free flowering. Its mid-violet-blue flowers (sometimes darker in summer) ensure it looks good in direct sunshine.
Equally at home when grown in the smallest garden or in a container on the deck garden, patio or outdoor dining area.
Looks stunning when grown with grey foliage or variegated free-standing or wall-trained shrubs.
