Thanks Lil!

2 metres is huge!!

About the norm for this apparently!

planted in the spring?

19 Sep, 2011

 

Seeds were chucked down in April!

19 Sep, 2011

 

oh, with tender loving care??!!

19 Sep, 2011

 

Lots of!!!!!

Like these, looking good, I like things with an evening scent as I get to smell them when im watering when I get home from work!

now i know how to sow seed then ~ thanks meanie!

do all seed packets come with the instruction:

'chuck down in April' ??

19 Sep, 2011

 

We can only imagine how good they could have been with a proper summer PA!
Sticki - it said something about seeds trays, transplanting and so forth! Chuck down in April works just as well!

Will be chucking them down also, at the back of the border!

20 Sep, 2011

 

Me too!

I could do with a chucking blog next April so I don't forget!

20 Sep, 2011

 

Invite your mates round and have a chucking party!

20 Sep, 2011

 

chucking party with chicken, cheese and chocolate!!??

20 Sep, 2011

 

And pickled chillies!

20 Sep, 2011

 

eeeek hot stuff!!!

chilled chorizo??

20 Sep, 2011

 

As long as the chucking is first and not after!!
That could read chilled wine too Sticki!

21 Sep, 2011

 

it could indeed ~ i just went a bit overboard with the ch sound!!

I have some seed if you want some Sticki and Lulu?? Just getting ripe now. I grew mine in cells, but may have a go at chucking next year. I didn't think they would stand a chance against the weeds this year!

yes please poppylover, that would be lovely.

3 Oct, 2011

 

I think that we'll start off in cells next year too to give them a head start!

3 Oct, 2011

 

They give so much seed Meanie, you could probably afford to do both!

If youd like to PM me your address Sticki and Lulu, I'll get some off to you.

Wow love, it hope ours will look as good!! many thanks Meanie.

Well my seeds from you P.L. are still in flower! But no scent any more. I left all my seeds in a flower pot since the spring...only to find that a mouse or voal has eaten them all up!
