In pots so a bit of a cheat.. Salvia patens from this years seedlings( 3 in pot)
2 pans of cyclamen. One an old one that has no leaves yet, and a pan of seedlings from Nut last year. Both flowering well , but one has leaves and the other not.
I planted seeds into a plug tray, then potted on seedlings into 3 inch pots, then 3 plants into a 12 inch pot. Ordinary multipurpose compost mixed with a bit extra blood fish and bone because I usually forget to supplementary feed.
You can easily save seed. These were from seed I saved from last year. Also the plants form tubers that can be overwintered in a frost free place, and will flower earlier next year.

My rudbeckias are the same veedun, been a fantasic year, even from the cuttings from last autumn.
The best is yet to come in my garden, I delay the cosmos so they are 6ft tall and just coming into flower and the asters are still in bud.
