That looks lovely. Do the blooms "drop over" when they open - mine seem to be too heavy for the stem and drop to the ground. This year I staked them but the blooms that opened still seem to prefer looking down rather than up ... Maybe they're a bit shy LOL :D

Yes they do I have to tie them up but they do not drop off GF

Sorry ... its my bad English .. I didn't mean they drop off as in fall off the stem. I meant droop over ... so the stem bends and bloom is facing down. When I didn't stake them last year they were lying horizontal on the ground Sheilar ... like yours :)
