You can get red ivy geraniums that are trailing, trailing red double begonias, Lotus berthelotii ,fuschia marinka is quite a red fuschia, red trailing petunias, trailing red verbena, those are all I can think of right now!

Hearts & Flowers (Aptenia x 'Red Apple') maybe?

I have discovered Million Bells (Calibrachoa) for the first time this year and am delighted with them. Only an annual but my red ones are trailing beautifully and amazingly prolific. (Well the white ones are doing the same actually :-))

Have you got a pic Cestina?

I'll go and take some now.....not been in very long and was going to wait a bit but will do it now. They look like baby petunias but the wonder of them is they don't need dead-heading!

You'll now find photos on My Photos....together with a survivor Iris ......

thanks

Thanks all for your suggestions, they were really helpful, will go and have a look at those pix right now Cestina :o)
