Manics

I can't see where it says the varieties but looking at the flowers I don't think they are the same as last year's three freebies which were Devon Dumpling, Rocket Fire and Royal Mosaic.  All of them did well here I'm pleased to say.   :)

I'll be really interested to hear how you get on with Delta's Sarah.  To me it looks rather like Carmel Blue which was quite disappointing here last year.  I'm looking for a Fuchsia with that colourway which doesn't fade to pinky-red.
