    Don't be sorry! I don't know what half my own plants are...even as we speak I'm waiting for one to flower so I can make an ID threadimage

    I love potentillas- they are one of my favourite plants.

    I ordered myself a banana daiquiri geum the other day but I wouldn't say no to a pink one!image

    As someone who's never managed to persuade anything to grow before this year, my dahlias are impressing me the most at the moment:

     I've had various poppy and pansy seeds produce no flowers, which has been the most disappointing thing of the year. And I have a tiny rose bush (I bought two but one died) which doesn't look very impressive at all. Perhaps it will in a couple of years when it's grown a bit and can produce more than one flower at a time!

    oh Tomsk you sound so disappointed image but bet your dahlias will soon cheer you up image are they all the colour in pic you have posted? that one is a right rich colour, love it! image

    Here are a couple of my hardy fuschias that I love and are doing the best ever this year. Please accept them as my stars for tomorrow as may not be able to get anything uploaded then image
