Scarlet pimpernel. I adore this little flower. I caught it struggling in one of my beds last year. It had self seeded.   I picked it up and tucked it up into a pot . It promptly disappeared but to my delight it has reappeared this year to give me a wonderful little performance. I love our native wildflowers!

They are aren't they. I only got them to take an order up to the no p+p level! I wasn't sure I'd like them but they are really nice. So a good suprise for me then!

Heres some more flowers. Took all of these pics today.

That Scarlet Pimpernel is just gorgeous, have never seen such a complimentary picture before. Love the Geraniums too, I have a few wild ones growing in my front garden, Doves Foot Cranesbill I think, they're so tiny and very pink.

I love our wildflowers too ;D

Hi Twospot! I'm waiting on some of mine to flower then I'll take some pics to show you.

I love the scarlet pimpernel.  Not seen that before.  I've grown mimulus before and liked them but they don't survive our winters.   The Flanders poppies were looking glorious with cow parsley along the roadside earlier on when I drove Possum and pal to their swimming lesson.  Since then the dratted man from the council has been and cut the verges!!!!  Nearly all gone!  Fortunately, I've been encouraging a colony on the boundaries of our garden that he doesn't reach so have my own personal display.

I spent an our or so weeding scarlet pimpernel out of my veg beds today, it loves my garden too much.  I was thinking of you Heldi, I got 3 buckets full!  Just making sure I catch them before they go to seed!

Hi Heldi!! Those piccies are fab. You have some lovely plants!! I love the blue geraniums - I have a Johnsons Blue which has just started to flower. Thanks for sharing your photos!

Lovely sharp pictures as usual Heldi - what camera have you got (I'm trying to decide which digital one to buy!)?

Poppies are my favourite flowers too - but the white rose is gorgeous as well.  Which climber is it?  I have a white cockade - took some pictures of it & my oriental poppies this morning with my elderly SLR!!  Looking forward to being able to post my pics when I've got the technology ...
