 I grew these from the seeds that came with GW earlier this year and I suspect I have never seen more ugly flowers!

Gift horses and all that...

    You're lucky though. I grew and planted loads and something ate them all except 2. I'm guessing slugs.  On the plus side they were the right way up.

     

  • I started these off in the greenhouse and lost a couple to a sneaky slug that I located under one of the pots. The rest did ok.



    I promise they are the right way up in the garden!

    My wife has grown these seeds from gardeners world and they are lovely flowers no problem with them at all.

  • I'm sure many would think they are pretty but they aren't to my taste!

    Mine are still only 2" tall image No idea why I got it so wrong but I'm not sure they are to my taste either....

    They look distinctly odd Steve. I've grown the GW packet too, 'hot mix' wasn't it? I'll see if I can get a photo.

  • It was HotMix, yes.

    Mine didn't come to anything either, grew a to a few inches then just died. Shame, because they are pretty.image
