I had 3 of the 'Illumination pink' when they first came out daisy & like a lot of T&M's 'new' plants I think they're very hit & miss. I put one in the border which popped it's clogs in the first winter & 2 in pots by the house one of which I think got through one winter & the other survived a few but has died since we moved to this house.

I like these bold stripey 'Mr Majestic' marigolds in my veg patch. Have actually managed to keep the slugs from murdering them. These echeveria are covered in flowers this year; And, randomly, I have not one but two amaryllis re-flowering now. This is 'Sweet Lilian' and 'Dancing Queen' is the one indoors. I'm pleased I can get Amaryllis bulbs to re-flower - but never when I want them to!

Those marigolds are really lovely Bess , I've never managed to sneak any past the slugs & snails.

The days are so dark that everything is growing long and lanky in my garden, and there are very few flowers
