    I had to dig up my achillea wesersandstein today and I've managed to take some little pieces off if anyone wants one.

    Noted amanda, I can do that, bit later on.

     

    What colour is the achillea Victoria? I have a tall yellow and a shorter one in bright pink. I can do root cuttings if anyone wants them.

     

    I have potted up some of the tall canpanula and the canp. Glomerata in both colours. I want to make sure they are well rooted and will then send them out ready to over winter then plant in the Spring. They will bloom next year,

    Wesersandstein I'd describe as pink/beige:

    when my seed packets come and i look thrugh what i've got i'll post, in autumn i'll be digging up lots of geraniums, i think thet are phaeum rozanne and pstelemon? unsure of the spelling and the varieties, all inherited, i would love heliotrope of poss to grow from seed

    That is very similar to mine Bekkie, I find they do better from root cuttings, if you collect seed they wont flower till the following year, roots will flower next year. Is it this?

    Sometimes seeds don't come true, cuttings will, if you really want to stick to white, I would take the base shoots and pot them up.

    This is the double aquilegia I have ready now from seeds.

     the white and yellow also ready to go

    Victoria, I would like a piece of that achillea,  do you want my dark pink or yellow one?

    Rosemummy, could I have a bit of the Roxanne, I am not sure what the other one is, but if its geranium, I would like it anyway.

    Please let me know if I have anything you would like, I have lots of stuff in the garden garden that I havent listed.

    No probs, Lyn, I'll get it sent probably tomorrow.image

    I would like some of your dark pink achillea please. I already have the tall yellow one which I think is cloth of gold. I really need to try and ID all mine before they get mixed up with the self seeds. I'm moving and splitting them all this back end so no doubt I'll be creating more...

    Would the white campanulas do well in part shade, sun from east only?
