........ that will flower this Summer  :D

I have sown corn cockle, poppies and nigella. Am after some easy peasy to grow flower seeds that will flower later this Summer. Stuff i can just throw on the soil or plant in tubs for lovely colour. Perrenials would be an added bonus but mainly stuff that will self seed.

I have a small list of seeds for swaps, PM me with your details.

Hi CF.  I'm sure I can help you out.  Can you give me an idea of the conditions you want to grow them in and your preferences for height and colour?

Thanks Georgie,
Am after stuff that will grow and flower in full sun and i have abit of the garden that gets shady in the afternoon, (after 1pm) although it's not boggy, or damp. Other than that anything really as i have a nice sunny spot, free draining and some patches with chalky soil.
I'd also love to grow plants in large terracotta pots so i can stand them whereever they look nice.

Thankyou
p.s thanks for the other plants etc you sent me  :)

Georgie

You're not wrong there Lorna! Thank you G, will think of you as I sling pink Morning Glories in with the climbing beenz :)

Awww, thanks Lorna and SS you are making me blush!   :-[  The thing is I always have a huge surplus of seed and it gives me great pleasure to pass it on to people who can make use of it.  And I've had some lovely things sent to me too: your lemon Mint, Lorna, your Beetroot, SS, Icy's Raspberries, Lottie's twisted Willow and lots and lots of other seeds to numerous to mention.  Three cheers for the swap shop!   ;D
