Verdun, I didn't know they have tubers, thought id be ok taking cuttings. oh help, cutting off ( no pun intended) more than I can chew I think - that's one reason I avoided dahlias! I've researched and formulated a cutting list for tomorrow, my usual plan is my garden lives or dies by my rules but this year I think I need to step up or they'll get their revenge!
On the page before the Bearded One mentioned African Blue Basil. Here is my African Basil that Lily Louise gave me when we visited her garden (NGS) when we were in England.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

Lovely pic MrsG. I haven't found that type of oxalis to be invasive. Just the opposite, I've lost one of them
In the sticks near Peterborough
Campanula (I think) bursting its little guts..., such anticipation!
And One of my New babies, salvia patio deep blue.
Both are sending a tingle down my spine at the moment, love 'em.

I like this as its the first time I have had an echinacea flower.
And I'm also loving the long flowering of this pyhygelius, they are gorgeous from underneath / inside the flowers.

, cuttings in front are growing well, they will be trained into 'lollipops' for autumn border, exciting stuff.
I'm here again
I know this means trouble if those seeds get started (which they will), but isn't it lovely?
It's in my,hmmm, wild flower and grasses area (aka next years project).
Morning all I thought I would post the star in my garden
Now the images don’t really do this little plant any justice at all, It maybe small but you can see the flower at 500 yds it really stands out.
Name is :- Geum Coccineum Koi
I bought one from my garden centre on Saturday and had to return on Sunday and buy 4 more love it so so striking and full of life.
