Great photo Sandra - I planted a tray of wild flowers a few months ago. When they were large enough I put them around in pots, in the garden soil, in our troughs with other flowers - not sure exactly which ones they are now!

Your picture reminded me that we have some sun loungers from the 1970's in out attic! with large yellow and orange flowers on them (similar shape to the flowers on your pic) and the bees always used to come after them when we were sunning ourselves, they were a nuisance-they must have thought they were real flowers !
