Thanks, LG. Yes, of course. Carolann. No, the last one is 'Clementine white'. I do have Green apples, though. I'll post a photo later if 'tinypic' will kindly allow me to - last night it really played up! |

Gosh - I really had no idea there were so many and quite how varied they can be.....definitely something to persue I think Barbara should resist taking photos after she's visited Sharon's pub.....thassorl  |

Thanks Geranium they will be well looked after in my garden I have taken a great likeing to them even though we had had them for years. That's a lovely shade of blue!  I wouldn't want to be without them - I never mind if seedlings pop up!  One of the McKanna hybrids grown from seed.  I like this one!  This is a self-seeded one.  'Green Apples '- also grown from seed. |

Thanks Ladies, it's one of my favourites. Geranium I do like those white/cream coloured ones. Who'd have thought there were so many different ones. I like to see the spurs on them. |

Lovely long spurs Geranium, I've got one very similar, didn't know it was called that. LG that blue one is lovely. Here's a few more of mine, I did weaken & buy another one at a plant sale yesterday peachy orange & yellow but forgot to take a pic.     Jillyx |

Jilly those are lovely. I'm hoping next year to have flowers on my yellow ones. A neighbour was just admiring mine this morning. The heavy rain does seem to have given the garden a new vibrancy. |

Here's the new one I got at the plant sale on Saturday.  Most of mine seem to have ended up in one border, here's a view of them all together, the purple ones at the front are all self seeded in the gravel.  Jillyx |

Lovely Jilly, I really will have to buy some more next year ( they don't self seed here  ) |

Weird isn't it - they grow like weeds in my garden, I'm forever pulling seedlings up! Love the yellows with the long spurs, and the new acquisition is very tasty Jilly Tig |

Very nice ladies love the one with the very long spurs also. Auricula perhaps you should just get a packet of mixed seed they may spread for you? the named ones seem to be more refined on where they put their babies well they are in my garden I have to collect the seed from them seeing as they dont like to spread around. |

There are some gorgeous colours on here! Mine are nearly all self-seeded and I've been removing the seed-heads to prolong the flowering of them, I shall allow the last ones to set though so if anyone wants purples let me know   and especially for PJ   Tig |

Those are lovely Tig, there's a lady round the corner from me on the main road and hers are all shades of purples in her garden. |
