That's lovely, Angie - sun or shade?

 

I only have the magenta ones in flower.

 

She is so beautiful - my favourite geranium! :-))

:-))) I'm really pleased to hear that, Ll..We must have the same taste in plants! Pity about the Solanum, though.

On blog - Good Do-ers!

 

Antirrhinums often do seed themselves - they pop up in places where you don't expect to see them! I always think that's a bonus! The parent plants tend to get 'woody' after a few years. It's good to have some free replacements!

By the way, the 'butterfly' ones don't self-seed.

 

This was one of the mixed colour packet of seeds - Next year, I've decided to go back to growing 'Orange King', which is exactly like this!

Do you mean a large leafy bed, Ian? LOL.

Thanks, Milky.

Which one is/was it, Andrew? I keep trying to get C. sabatius to stay with me - but I've lost it twice. Yes, I know that's blue! lol.

Clever, Dawn!

 

How did I miss this one? That's such a great photo,Bb. :-))

That's really lovely! Is it a shade plant, or does it prefer sun?

 

LOL, Bb. :-))

 

You've really improved the area, Andrew. I'm sure you're pleased with your efforts - and your visitors will get a really good first impression, too!

Oh - that photo of the little mouse! How on earth did Jane get that? Let alone the others! I loved it - thanks to both of you! :-))

 

So - you've visited my favourite RHS garden! It's quite a journey from us, but I've been there twice so far - I shall certainly go again, though.

That dark red Dahlia is just beautiful! I shall make a note of it....:-))

We had a few minutes of sun - so I took its photo! :-)

Months, Tt! Since the early summer, I think - June?

Yes, the seed packet actually calls them 'Butterfly Antirrhinums', Tt. I love the shape of the flowers - the only downside is that they don't seed themselves like the 'snapdragon' type. I think I'll grow both kinds next year!

Pp, I really like that description! :-)
