There's a wonderful drop on this Clematis Fair Rosamund, slightly to the left of centre

And this little pansy hasn't quite flopped yet

I must admit that it is rather pretty as Plocket says Tig - just not what you were expecting was it?

If you think about it, it isn't so strange as the Mex's belong to the Marigold Family (Asteraceae) and that is why the seeds are typical for that family.

I still am not sure why you have managed to grow one though.....erm well done!!
