An incredible shade of blue......by the way, remind me, what is a summer's day?!!

Lovely colour Sticki

How lovely is that ;0)

That is just beautiful, Sticki!

Thank you everyone, I have only just bought this, which is probably why it's looking good! I'm not sure they ever come back the next year as well in my garden?

Wildrose - good point! Thought I could look at this flower instead! And dream!

Lovely colour Sticki..we had a summer day yesterday...nice this morning too,but still chilly yet..going downhill later today..so the "experts" said :o(

Sun came out yesterday evening which was very nice but rain expected today, :-(

Lovely photo

;-)

Pretty.

Do you think it will be ok and just as good next year?

Ooh, I've got this one, but its not in flower yet. Its gorgeous. I have had this one for years and it gets bigger and better every year.

Aqualegias usually come back sticki, but you never know with plants do you! Ive just read that they like light shade which prolongs flowering and cut back to their basal foliage in autumn, and remove dead leaves in spring, ive got a white/lemon one i bought last year and a few o the common ones around the garden from years ago that keep coming back, i always say to myself i will get rid of them after they have flowered but never do :^))

Lovely one, I save the seeds on mine Sticki, but most come back of their own accord anyhow, they don't always come true though - I was told at a Horticultural College they are very promiscuous plants!! - don't ask ;o)

oh thanks rose, thats very good news

thanks daylily i shall try to remember that

i shall certainly try to keep the seeds for this one, thanks neellan

the cosmos seeds i saved from last year are not doing very well. :-(

Shame about your Cosmos the year before last mine failed too, but last year I had loads and gave a lot of plants away, you have just reminded me I forgot to plant any this year! :o(

do you think its too late now?

Probably Sticki I'll try some though and keep my fingers crossed!

I think I will too.

Lovely flower. I bought an aquiligia root in a bag and planted it in a pot, left it in the greenhouse and have just placed it in the garden on the patio. It has had a few flowers already. They are very delicate blooms and such lovely pastel colours.

hope yours grows well linda

thanks Sticki, hope your plant does well for you too.

i hope so too!!

great colour, i do like these :-)

lovely things arent they

Oh yes, so much so i grew about 15 different ones :-)

well done you, i used to love them as a child, but there must be some wild ones or very different ones that come up in my garden, not anything like as spectacular

if you want any seed later of mine your more than welcome to some...

oooh i might just like that, thank you SL, you are very kind, the bunnytails are doing really well ~ will i be better to put them in a pot or the ground as they get bigger?

Beautiful.

they will grow bigger and more naturally in the ground Sticki, but they can survive in a pot depends how much space you have :-)

ahhhhh it's yummy. My fave flower. I have a similar one but darker blue. Would look good together. We'll have to seed swap when flowering is over! x

thanks katarina

i can find the space for them surreylad, just have to make sure i find the right space. maybe i will put some in a pot ~ i just love seeing them in a pot.

i had to buy it HB, i loved it.
