I have campanula aubrita and dianthus deltoids in my greenhouse from september and have currently just put out hardy carnations, lobelia cardinalus and delphinium magic fountain. Also got lobelia trailing annual in cold frame but i dont expect that to survive think i sowed that far too early but dont have room indoors. Have sowed pansies and violas at the moment and will sow cornflowers next month.
aubrieta dont look too happy at the moment as my cold frame blew away a while back and the got really batterd off the wind so i donno if they are gonna survive. Also alot of my sweetpeas were severly damaged when this happened but appear to be recovering.
yes started them september. To be honest they have never looked happy since I sowed them always sort of straggly and they did get very leggy as well before i potted them on. My cold frame blew away and seed tray went with them. I had 10 plants although i didnt need that many only wanted 2 and i have 3 i salvaged but some of the leaves have yellowed from the wind damage so i dont know if they gonna survive. Hope they do survive and i also think its very unlikly they will flower this year.
Funnly enough my lobelia are also doing very well. They have grown bigger since i planted them out and look really good at present. Will see if they survive be a pleasent surprise if they do. I am just really struggling with getting penstemon off to a start. All my first seeds died i am on my second batch.
