Good results from seed exchange
in Plants
Thank you again, Lyn, for the Cleome seed you sent me earlier this year.
The biggest and best I have grown - and I have been growing cleomes for years!

No how did that happen! Definitely didn't put photos in upside down!
Lovely, Flowerlady.. were they my own collected seeds or a new packet? they certainly look strong.
Pics upside down happens, not you its the site.x
Something to do with the software not getting the right signals from embedded orientation info in your photos. They come out the right way when you click to enlarge.
Lovely flowers and colours. One of my favourite fill in plants when waiting for perennials to mature.
Lyn my fuchsia's are looking fab and the buddleia has flowered it is purple so now been planted in my bee and butterfly area for them to enjoy it
Flowerlady3 loving the cleome they look brill with the cosmos
just your saved seed Lyn - got a fab display!
perhaps I sowed them upside down too!!!
Gardengirl, is that buddleia the old bog standard purple or the dark wine colour, I haven't got any plain purple, but they shoot up everywhere and it could have been seeded by a bird. Glad the fuchsias are ok, watch out for vine weevil!
My collected seeds from the Cleome were twice the size of the ones in the packets, so I am pleased they turned out ok because I didnt grow them this year!
Lyn it is purple buddleia but nice, I waited for it to flower before planting .... vine weevil oh no don't want them on the plants they are evil buggers - they are in pots on the potting table good 80cm high hope they won't go that high up
