Interesting they behave differently in our gardens @NigelJ and Black and Blue performs better for you. Lovely to have salvias for the bees too,...
looks lovely and a good option for a shorter one. Will be interested to know if you get one and how it grows for you. Guess you will sing the song...
Hello @Spruce, I grow both. Amistad is the one I prefer as a darker purple colour and it copes well with the cold and seems to flower for longer...
That’s so sad @shiney. Such a large number. Good luck with it and let’s hope weather is kinder this winter. Not that we want to think about that...
@shiney, yes did smile to see fabulous dahlias too. I grow lots of bishop too and currently have a tray of seedlings for bishops children and...
Wow, looks stunning @shiney. I’m having a swoon

They are such a thug, but do look lovely. Gave some to parents (after saying they will spread everywhere) lawn full then following year they had...

Oh, and dug up a load of Oxeye Daisy seedlings for a friend who wants some for her garden. Moved them so quickly they didn't realise they had...
Hello @Perki, found a couple of photos of Molly Raven dahlia which you had your eye on.Photos have come out looking rather pink but the flowers...
Potted on 45 more dahlias. About 50 or 60 more to pot. Potted up 34 lilium. Sowed yet more cosmos (cupcake and double dutch rose) and sowed three...
