And I forgot to buy any! I really liked the display by the Scottish Begonia Society, Mark. A stunning combination of all types. Will post a couple of pics soon.

I cannot find these in my area...alas. I would probably need to lift them every year anyway...sour grapes. I will love yours instead.

This blue poppy has been filed on my blue-flower photo favourites.
Thanks for this one, David.

I was a bit surprised to see you felt you would need to lift mecanopsis if you had it Tabitha, surely your winters cant be colder than the Himalayas, and anyway mecanopsis thrive in cooler climates with higher rainfall which is why it grows beautifully in east of Scotland where I live, if you look at the exchange page you will see I have seed, which you are welcome to some if you want it, the original plant came from Branklin gardens in Perth which is renowned for it's Himalayan poppies and subsequent generations of seed have proved as electric blue as their great grand parent
