Help please Will any seeds put up with dry positions?
I have just pulled up all the forget-me-nots and the borders look very bare. They are also very very dry. Are there any seeds I can order that may grow for this summer. If not seeds any summmer bulbs ?

seeds need water in order to germinate so unless you water the seeds in nothing will germinate. you might be better buying bedding plants now that gc are open again.

lots of bulbs would already have been started into growth but you may still be able to get alliums/Sparaxis/freesia/gladioli. either way you will have to water them to get them established.

Certain plants do OK in dry positions. Look to the prairie plants - coreopsis, cone flowers, galardia, sweet everlasting, guara, etc. But even they need some water to get started. Agree with above.
