Isn't it a great size, I thought a couple of mine were going to overwinter, but unfortunately the last lot of bad weather finished them off  . I usually sprinkle a few seeds into my summer pots, but think I've left it too late this year. |

Thanks Ladies, it is a good size Jilly and would have filled that dish properly if I'd not been growing Saxifridge in it along with it. I took it out and put it front of border as the pot was too crowded. It was Tig who introduced me to this little plant some years ago and I've been growing it ever since. The scent is intoxicating and I love it. Jilly that one of mine was sown late last year and overwintered well, I just kept it dry ish but it was outside. You might be luckier this year with yours. I'll sow some again soon to try to do the same thing. |

Golden Mock Orange. Lovely foliage, blooms profusely, fragrant but not as fragrant as other mock oranges  |

I often wonder why they call this one "peach bell flower". The only 2 colours I've ever seen are "white" and "blue".  |

Epilobium close-up.  Campanula 'White Octopus' - which will probably be thuggish.  |

Some whites from me.... Honorine de Jobert (think that's how you spell it  )  Anemone Wild Swan. I'm so pleased with this, it was slow to get going but is doing well now. How are yours doing now Ladygardener?  |

Oh Wow Jasmine, it's looking great so is Honorine de Jobert.  Well done, you must have done something I did'nt as mine has a few leaves and have been potted on but there'd be no chance of them looking like yours or flowering this year. Are yours in a pot or the ground? Still, I lost 1 but these 2 I still have seem to be survivors and are looking healthy. I'll keep them in the pots I potted them on to the other day over the winter. |

I've only got one Ladygardener - you don't seem to be able to get them from Haylofts in ones now but I ordered it last spring and got it this spring. It's in a pot at the moment (that pic is some of the plants on an old garden table - no chance of using the table now!) but I quite like it with the phlox and grass so might put them in a bigger pot together! I never thought it was going to come to anything and then I was really worried about leaving it to go on holiday but it was flowering when we got back! |

I think it's a lovely combination. Fingers crossed mine look like that next year. |
