    @Perki I'm sorry I have no idea. They were for sale at our local market. Happy to save some seeds for you and post them. :)

    @CanadianLori first time I've ever had them and so hoping they do self seed as they are lovely. I'll also save the seeds incase we have moved by then (wishful thinking).

          That's odd as I've always found N.sylvestris very fragrant. N.langsdorfii isn't fragrant but I really like it - restrained and classy IMO.
          This year I've started off some N.glauca (Tree Nicotiana) seeds. It is a small tree once mature but not fragrant and needs a little winter protection but I love it. A photo from a few years ago............

            Yes, the leaves would be more likely to have the nicotine so the petals should be healthier. :lunapic 130165696578242 5:

                  This is the front of my Mum's bungalow. It looks very colourful. They are mostly pre made up hanging baskets with the hangers removed. She says the antirrhinums in front have come from beneath the gravel. Nobody knows how they got there.

                  Ps. The rose at the far end was my doing. :pathd:

                            Hordeum Jubatum.....I keep trying to capture the colours in this but fail to. In the garden these reflect pink, purple, red and a dozen other hues as the sun shines and the breeze blows. I can highly recommend this grass...annual or short term perennial. Sown from seed in March :)
