OOOOH that's bad news Sandra sorry to hear that. Not sure if I can save any seeds from mine, as not sure how to do it yet (they were from a friend in the Netherlands). If I can save some later in the year I'll let you know and can send you some if you want some ;-)

Some of my chilli plants blew over today Sandra in the wind but they are OK. I went in the garden today and collected some peas (grown from Leo's dried peas in a box!) some mange tout, broad beans, runner beans, and Beltony Blue peas for our dinner tonight-they tasted great-even though I say so myself....lol ;-)

15 Jul, 2010

 

glad your enjoying the fruits of your labour richard, so nice home grown ;o))

15 Jul, 2010

 

Yes Sandra I picked them just about an hour before we ate them. I arranged them in a circle and took a pic-just put it on here. Have you heard of Clarke's beltony blue peas, they are a very old Irish variety and the pods are a very dark purply-blue ;-)

15 Jul, 2010

15 Jul, 2010

 

We have had some wind here Cristina and it blew a lot of my chilli plants over that were in pots in the garden-they are OK though no damage. Hope your rose survived OK ;-)

15 Jul, 2010

 

rose ok ,not sure bt montana. have replanted it so will c was a right job to do.

19 Jul, 2010

 

These will self seed if planted in a flowerbed but the seeds will remain on the top of the soil. They are in a big round case so easy to spot. I had caterpillars all over mine. They are a late ongoing flower and lovely to have.

Thanks for the info Lindak I will have a look for them and also collect a few for planting elsewhere next year :-)
