Very pretty, dandelion.   ;D  Love the phlomis - can't grow it here as the slugs and snails decimate it.   >:(

The slugs nibble mine in winter, but seem to leave it alone once it starts growing strongly in spring. I grew the Phlomis from seed.

I think the geranium is Johnsons Blue.  LOVE Phlomis.  Thanks to the lovely EMaggie I am going to try growing some from seed.  ;D
