Pretty in pink, Oenothera, only found out the name because a catalogue arrived the other day. Can be a bit invasive but will tolerate poor dry soil. When it starts looking tatty chop it off and it will re flower.

it may be a struggle to reach the top, but once your over the hill your problems start.

Ive had a few flower days off so my challenge has changed a bit to allow for flower waiting days
I am still trying,you lot are doing so well,my flower for today is snow princess calendula -

^^^^^ That flower above, Calendula, to me, does not get the recognition it deserves, it has a lovely shape and now more mixed colours, easy to grow and edible
though I have never came across seeds for snow princess, but will watch out for it now

Cranesbill/ perennial geranium for me today - forgot to post it yesterday! Not sure which one but this is a workhorse in the garden. Flowers all summer. And come September you can chop bits off and replant elsewhere .,..I have many of these dotted about

Verbena bonarensis, not that spectular except for its height but a great attractor for butterflies. Seeds freely and almost becomes a weed.Attached FilesGardening requires a lot of water - most of it in the form of perspiration. Lou Erickson, critic and poetComment

I love that ^^^^ It was swarming with goldfinches last winter so I've planted even more this year.
My flower is an Ox eye daisy (I think). Its popping up all over the place and its very welcome.

The verbena bonarensis is supposed to be a hardy perennial but sadly not in my area as I can never get it to survive the winter, think its too wet and cold for it, and VC I thought the ox eye daisy had a black centre though I could be wrong, whatever it is its nice as it gives some brightness to the gardenLast edited by rary; 24-07-2018, 09:28 AM.it may be a struggle to reach the top, but once your over the hill your problems start.
