              I bought these yesterday at the little market in Wem, a perennial Poppy "Checkers", a pink flowered Dicentra [for the Bog Garden], and a white flowered Delphinium "Magic Fountain", I should have resisted the impulse to them.:dunno::wallbanging:
              [​IMG]

              And then today while in Morrisons I saw Guem "Koi" and Trollius "Goldkonigin" [for the Bog Garden] on a two for £3 offer when I really should have resisted the impulse to buy them.:dunno::dunno::wallbanging::wallbanging:

              [​IMG]

              Then while I was in Aldi's today I saw they had Calla Lilies in pink, yellow, and black flowered forms for £3.99p...so I bought them when I really, really should have resisted the impulse to buy them.:dunno::dunno::dunno::wallbanging::wallbanging::wallbanging:

                  I wanted to press LIKE and FUNNY and AGREE but how could I Armandii?
                  We'd have all done the same,
                  just gotta be done,
                  all smashing plants and I look forward to seeing them in situ when ambling around in a couple of months,
                  Jenny

                        Scorched corn is a Bob Brown introduction , all sold out now but you could get your hands on Bees Sunset or its other name Shining Sceptre but its been sorted out now by the RHS as Bees Sunset , it was Blooms of Bressingham that caused the mistake in the 80's by selling the wrong named plants , hopefully will flower next year I just hope they like the garden as haven't grown them here before , plus my Oriental poppies are really doing well so who knows
                        , I ordered these in January only arrived this week , it was all that rain and cold I must of needed a shot of warm hot colors
