Making a show at the front of the herbaceous border Anagallis monellii ‘Sky Lover’ (blue pimpernel, poor man’s weather glass) is a low, compact, trailing plant. This tender perennial is usually grown as an annual which blooms from mid summer until the frost. The flowers close at sunset or during cloudy weather.
