    Dave, i grew those Shasta daisy last year and they are now lovely plants ready to go in, they'll flower this year .

    My campions are up as well.

    I have some lychnis biz? Seeds, from daughters plant, if anyone would like some, I have set a few and they all came up quickly.

    Common name is lambs ears, velvety type leaves.

    I have spare seeds in packets dated sow by aug 2014.

    Californian poppy. Bright orange poppy. Cosmos purity (white). Swan river daisy summer skys.

    I would like a packet of sage seeds if anyone has any spare, or just a pinch, if you have already opened your packet.

    Thank you,

    Lyn.

    Has everyone done with seed swaping now, I expect everyone's all planted up.

    Same time next year then folks.

    Don't know what I was thinking of there! they are Stachys Biz. seeds not lychnis, sorry to confuse.

    Bev, thank you so much, the seeds have arrived today, I am tempted to leave the verbena B till the summer and grow it on as a usual perennial, and plant out Autumn or early spring next year, I know they say 1st year flowering, but I have never had much success with that in other seeds.

    No I haven't Lyn, about to start my spring sowings as soon as the temperature rises.

    But I'll find the thread there somewhere if it sinks into oblivion

    I get things all year as well. The aquilegias and hellebores (and other) are best swapped and sown fresh.

    Hello Nutcutlet, I have a lot of hellebore and aquilgia seeds that I set last year and are all up, do you mean that the rest of the seeds are no good this year, should I throw those away and collect fresh later this year?
