    Here's some of my flowers I took pictures of last week, nothing too special! :D

    Grew these from seed;

    I have another 2 Campanulas, but I think I've already shown my huge one which covers a part of my patio area..

      Kyle - they are looking great. Its been so cold here recently that most of my plants seem to have started to hibernate already.

      I always find plants grown from seed are especially satisfying.

      They are!

      My Cosmos were about 5ft tall and kept falling over.. so I had to get rid of them today to stop them from falling over damaging other plants, but they didn't seem to produce many flowers (I put some in my sister's garden and they have about 20 flowers on each plant).

      Some of the Roses I bought in July are close to flowering, so I'll take pictures when they do.

                Armandii, I bought 3 new roses from B&Q today, so I'm hoping for it to look a bit fuller next year :D thanks for the compliment, too!
