I think I have this Amy. I was confused as I grew purple loosestrife last year and this year but they are different, last year's must have been Robin - much smaller flowers and plants, arent they. Lovely by the way, they say you should set in 3's dont they, never 2's,lol.

I lke these too Amy, Im trying to bulk my plants by grouping together, started with the dog daisies and hope increase my Veronicas next, just a little at a time ' I was going to ask you about the pink meconopsis, do you grow new each year or do they self seed?

I have the purple loosestrife Dawn it is much taller and finished flowering some time ago , I've actually set these next to the loosestrife so that one lot of flowers will take over from the next , these are smaller as you say only about 18" tall ....
Never mind Janey , you will be able to get one next time you pass ...:o)
You can't do it all at once can you Carol , we start by doing one small area at a time and then wait to see the results ...... The pink poppies do seed themselves Carol , we usually have them popping up all over but you can save your seed as well to be sure to get some ..... good luck :o)

they are useful Amy, my purple loosestrife are still flowering well but they were new plants. I'll try and save some of the smaller plant seeds Janey.
