Yes, pretty! I seeded different sorts - from Shirley, from Kasia, but here seeds do not grwo somehow. I must plant them. Do you have those large new mutants? On the photo they look quite big. I saw them in our small garden shop, they had heads like mine, huuge, fantastic. Just too expensive. One plant costed almost thirty euros!!!

I did not buy any . They were all here when we moved in Katarina and I let them appear here and there...where ever they do. There are some in permanent position but I think I have more then I had then. Reds come first and then Pinks follow.They are quite large and the flower does not last very long. Some have to be staked...especially when it rains heavily like this spring. It is sunny today though, so I will have some gardening done. Weeds grows well too :-)
