Being a variety of poppy your seeds will be viable for decades. No, i’m not in the seed swap.

Today my flowers are begonia semperflorens showed them before but still flowering away good style, I suppose I could have Photoshoped them and they would have lasted me for the month
But I think there is a chooky burdie that would have had a go at me with a pointy stick
It has been a very good year for baskets and containers, a good display and I have hardly watered or deadheaded since they went out
There is a tuberus begonia in there alsoit may be a struggle to reach the top, but once your over the hill your problems start.

Two today to make up for missing yesterday. First a double Summer heather and second Perovskia.Attached FilesGardening requires a lot of water - most of it in the form of perspiration. Lou Erickson, critic and poetComment

This is a rather unusual begonia - unusually narrow shaped flowers and unusual threads of colour edging the leaves. I have added a second photo to show there are three different varieties of begonia in one pot. Previously I posted the pink roselike begonia. I’m not good at naming varieties of begonias.Attached FilesLast edited by cheops; 15-09-2018, 09:08 AM.Comment

Wonderful combination and very showy, rary. Do you lift the tubers out of the baskets soon and replant in the garden next spring?Comment

My Flower is Linaria (probably Fairy Bouquet) - part of a Lucky dip bedding plant collection. Like a baby snapdragon.

Yes cheops I will be breaking up my baskets quite soon now I should actually label them for colour before storing them, but that would take some of the anticipation of waiting for them to flower next yearOriginally posted by cheops View Post
This year I am going to try keeping some of the fibrous rooted begonias over the winter, just to see if I can

This chrysthamum is a loner and lives beside the gooseberry bushes. It’s pretty but not great for the pollinators. I don’t know the name of this variety which rather annoys me.Attached FilesComment

How stupid of me. Too early in the morning. Thanks Martin -I’ve loads of dahlias and not one chrysanthemum so I must be succumbing to dementia.Last edited by cheops; 16-09-2018, 09:13 AM.Comment

Sedum spectabalis today, strangely the Butterflies don’t seem to be very interested in it even though it’s said to be a butterfly attractor.Attached FilesGardening requires a lot of water - most of it in the form of perspiration. Lou Erickson, critic and poetComment

My Flower is another Begonia survivor - this time in a hanging basket that hasn't been replanted for a couple of years (because I'm lazy).
