pretty in pink wagger...you have such nice flowers I'm almost tempted to start growing some myself, oh ohhh... I think I feel a bed coming on....or is it a hammock..lol

lol. Go on, be brave - Ian succumbed, why not you too?

NO, NON,NIET, NA, NIX,... Now i's seen jack flash i'm just not sure any more...maybe, possibly, perhaps...and champagne fizzpoppy.... see plans drawn up yisterdy.... for a compromise ...now can us veggers get you flower power ippies to meet us halfway with cabbages in your borders, That, is the question.....

Well, I've grown Ruby Chard in my borders - not sure about cabbages, though. How about you doing a bit of companion planting - that would break you in gently. Nasturtiums attract aphids away from your veg, and the flowers are edible. Lavender will attract loads of beneficial insects. That's just for starters.

Oh I do a bit we're not completely flowerless, I plant tagetes when i can find them for the hoverflies you know!

They deter white fly from tomato plants too, don't they?

Not sure about the deterent value but they bring masses of hoverflies which eat white and greenflies
