Robin's Unique
Uniques are mostly tall and shrubby plants, ideally suited to growing outside in the summer. Robin's Unique is much smaller and suited to a windowsill, or a small hanging pot, since it is a low and spreading plant. The flowers are small and dark red/pink with attractive veining on the two upper petals. It is quite difficult to take cuttings of this one because every stem has a flower. Diana Hull hybridised this in about 1980. The leaves have a faint scent, said to be of almonds, but I can't detect that myself! This plant is sometimes listed as 'Robin'.
