Went to the gc today and bought these lovelies, six impatiens, which I assume are New Guinea Hybrids (no card) and two veronicas, Inspire Blue and v.Ulster Dwarf ( the latter is the taller one! ). Both are delicious blues. Now where needs filling the most:-)

You're obviously more organised than me Julie. Every year I think I have solved the gap problem ....fool that I am lol. I love the colours of the veronicas, they'll have to go in the back garden as that gets the most sun. I think a lot of my plants have lost the plot like me:-)

I'm just lucky that seedlings always seem to germinate 100% and I have some little tubs that act as holding bays. Must admit I used to love heading the garden centre to fill my gaps but money tight at the minute so practising being thrifty :-)

I think I'll buy some hardy annual seeds for next year and just scatter them a bit:-)

Well, if you do, don't use that Miraclegro canister, Ba - remember what happened to me? A real cautionary tale.

As if I would ........ do I look like a lazy gardener?:-)))))

Hey! I resent that - I'm not a lazy gardener! Cheek. Take that back, or it'll be a duel at midnight tonight. Swords or pistols? (Canes or sprayers?)

I was lucky enough to have some fillers waiting in little tubs for the inevitable gaps that appear in June :-) Love the veronicas, mine has lost the plot so I need to separate and give some TLC :-)
