yet more martagon lilies

Very elegant.

I have to say they are very attractive

hardly any scent sadly.

A must get for next year.......

Dont they need acid soil?

well if they do, these havn't read the books or noticed they are over chalk, so ssshhh! ;o)

I would brave the lily beetle for one of these!

i will see what divides itself in the autumn. I do have the odd one in a pot somewhere.

Thats kind SBG, and most welcome if you dont want it. I love the tall slim plants, you can squeeze them into a fairly small spot! I have crocosmias dotted around and have just bought Salvia Blue Queen and some Lobelia Fans..my Hadspen Purple survived both last bad winters very well, so Im hoping I can keep these others for a while. Ive also gone a bit silly and bought a white Hesperis..altho it seeds, my OH a beggar for going around pulling up tiny weeds (or so he thinks lol) so I dont think I will be getting taken over!
I also bought some Lunaria Canon Went..not sure where its going to "went", but always handy for front of the border.
