they are beauties Rosie, I bought the Ginger Syllabub for a friend in Canada and she loved it, she has sadly passed away, I think I must get one and grow it here to remind me of her

We went to the Reclamation Yard to pick out the paving we need - of course I popped into a Nursery we passed on the way! ;D Got a beautiful white Scabious and another Helenium. I fell for a species Pelargonium, too...no idea where I can keep that! I'll pick Lou's brains - I know she's got one. Advice, please, Lou!

Thanks, Lou. I thought I'd get a nice pot and keep it in the porch for a few weeks, then bring it into the Garden Room. I just realised I posted my 'Sahin' twice! Oops!

It was worth posting twice Geranium. Lovely plant.

Thank you, Cherry. Here's the Pelargonium I mentioned - P. sidioides. I think it's a lovely plant!

It is indeed!....I love the leaves too....so neat

I think it's the contrast between the silvery leaves and the maroon flowers...anyway, I hope I look after it well. Have you managed to take cuttings off it, Lou?
