    I would like the sweet peas if you have any left, they are mums favourites, I grow a row just for cutting. Also the draco wotsits, just googled and they look nice, I am going to get as many perennials in as I can for lower mantainance! (Just in case)

    I can recommend those Rudbeckia, easy to grow and fantastic flowers, mine from this year are still going strong. As have Bekkies salvias, I am pleased about that because I have a tall blue one and have never got the seeds to grow!

    I still have loads of seeds that I listed before, the foxgloves and delphs have germinate so have proved themselves.

    I picked some white cornflowers and mixed tagettes today.

    Sorry folks, mix up on my postings there, totally lost the plot now, time for bed said Zeberdee!

    Just seen fishys post, I dont know what they like, I mentioned on another thread that I just put anything I fancy in anywhere, it usually grows ok.  My salvia is lovely, just the seeds dont grow from it, tried 2 years running.

    Lyn - I'll see if I can salvage some Clary Sage seeds. They are quite small plants with the leaves turning pinkish as they near the top of the stem. I'll leave it until tomorrow as everything's wet from the rain.

    Poppy - the seeds arrived this morning. Beautifully wrapped and a stunning hand written sheet of plant information. What a lovely touch,thank you image

    I didnt know you had those Fishy!, would be great if you could get some seeds. Thank you.

    I have just cut another lot of leaves off of my herb sage for drying, its been a bumper year for everything. herbs dried, beans, greens and red peppers in the freezer.

    Great! I really want to grow some nasturtium, there seems to be a shortage of bees in my garden


    The seeds are ready now, red, queen of the night I think, variagated leaved pale yellow with red spots and a variety of mixed orange and yellows.
