Lou, you might have seen my photo of the Senecio - I grew one for the first time this year. I like it, and it would be great if it did seed itself. The flowers are very small, though!

Thats a very pretty plant there Geranium, i love the colour

Are you growing it in sun, SteveN? My A. napellus needed sun, but I have A. carmichaelii in shade, thriving.

Yours is a beauty, and I hope it comes back next year for you.

Sorry G, missed your reply

It's half and half. Not really shade but out of direct sun untill about 3pm.

I've been wondering about roses and bees, I don't always plant for the bees but it is an added bonus if it they are good for them too.

I like one or two of the open types for the insects WLF, the only downside is it doesn't have a perfume
