Wonderful pictures, especially like seeing red poppies in among the wildflowers, quite lovely. The bed of lavender must have smelled beautiful. If folks complain about flowers, tell them about the ones with edible petals.
Yes it did look lovely and I actually thought the red poppies where like the icing on the cake. I can't beleive how easy it was to grow the wildflowers, I added no fertiliser or compost/manure and the ground was in a terrible state as it had had the sheds on it.
There are still a few flowers open even now (though it has mainly gone over now), so they lasted five months all in all.
The lavender looked stunning too and it did smell lovely and the bees absolutely loved it. I try to use everything I possibly could, so I made some really nice lavender cakes, lavender biscuits and lavender lemonade.
All in all, I very pleased with the flowers at the allotment this year
