Every garden should have some Tigs i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd161/GWDAdmin1/Smilies/Default/cool.gif

Each flower may not last long, but I hope you have plenty more to come, and they are so exotic looking and just a tad extrovert, how do they manage to get the bright pink spots & splodges in amongst the yellow? Like manic freckles i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd161/GWDAdmin1/Smilies/Default/cheesy.gif

I hope you have lots more colours to bloom i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd161/GWDAdmin1/Smilies/Default/smiley.gif

The picture on the packet didn't do them justice as they are much bigger than I thought they'd be. the red one is very striking too

What a lovely idea for a thread Isabella and a

from me.

I had taken some pics yesterday - hope you don't mind me adding them here. I am always amazed at the differences between the flowers of the same colour.

and some that are not quite sure whether they are red or pink.

and some that have decided...

What a lovely selection RF, how did I miss those I have lots of babies but no mature, flowering ones this year, new batch for next summer I reckon. Tig
