And two from Harlow Carr plant centre...

Dictamnus albus 'Purpureus' for hot baked spot at back of house.

And a Euphorbia schillingii (already have one in front garden, sunnier spot) for a sun/part shade spot in back garden.

I think it is one of those waiting on my pavement to be planted. I would love to visit Harlow Carr in the spring, or any time really. Great photography showing the bee.

Similar to last year's, Lou...but the Pelargoniums are slightly different. I certainly wouldn't grow them in my garden, but they'll be unmissable in the box in the lane. ;D
