I am chuffed to bits with my Peruvian Daffodils. Need to get some more. Love them Dai. I tried them last year lots of foliage but no flowers. The bulbs where the only one I lost really I lifted them it did not store well. Seen different instructions on growing them. Some say plant deep other shallow.

@hywel, no, they are both in my back garden, not far from each other. I can't understand it, because C. viticellas aren't known for wilt. grindle, yes, I've had R. elata several times and it isn't hardy, but it seeds itself. This one is newly bred and has larger flowers - you never know, it may turn out too be hardier than the species. More photos... Rudbeckia 'Summerina'. I really love this Centaurea 'Cara Mia' - it's reliable, hardy, and keeps on flowering for months. Bees and butterflies love it too. The newly revamped wall trough.

Love the Peruvian Lily daitheplant I really like Centaureas, such good doers, that is a pretty one, isn't it the one you got from Powderham Geranium ? I've seen the new Rehmania when I was at Rosemoor the flowers are huge in comparison

Yes, they are, grindle. No, I had the Centaurea last year for the bed I revamped, and liked it so much I found more to go in my top border. It's such a good doer!

That Centauria is just the plant for the front of my Campanula 'Pritchard's Variety' Geranium. Well you know I love Hemerocallis grindle.

Every year I think it's going to be OK, @hywel, with plenty of buds and promise - and then - it turns brown over night.

I hope your other Clematis will stay mildew free Geranium. Are you going to move the other one, or will you leave it alone ? Difficult to know what to do really.

Here's a Fuchsia Beryl bought a few years ago, called 'Ant and Dec' The humans irritate me but I like the Fuchsia. They should have named it something else !
And here's a begonia she bought last week, which looks nicer in real life than it does on here :-
I like this next one - Campanula lactiflora, Prichard's Variety :-

I agree about Ant & Dec @hywel. You have my favourite Campanula too. It is like powder blue or baby blue.
