Lottie Flowers

[Nigella]

I am planning a flower bed for my lottie. Have started my sweetpeas and some sunflowers.

Was also thinking of dahias .....

Any recommendations for lottie flowers that I can cut for my house?

Also very excited as started some lavender seeds off last week - and they have sprouted!  :)

Nice well planned selection, Jerry! 
I have the usual spring tulips and daffs to cheer the house up as well as  Shrubs - rhodo, azaleas and hydrangea - (which aren't for cutting tho) hollyhocks, dahlias and acquilegias (first proper year for them). There are a fair amount of carnations and pinks because I love the scent. I also have lilies, galdiolii and irises which have a tendency to get knocked over by foxes/cats but still look good in a tall floor vase.  Usually have lots of sweet peas of course but since I've had to resow this year I am not saying anything yet... :(
Hmm I think Mr W may be losing the battle  ;)

I am also planning to grow some flowers at the allotment to cut for the house. On my list are:

Gerbera
Hollyhocks
Dahlia
Gladioli
Pyrethrum
Sunflower
Iceland Poppy
Sweet Pea
Lilies
Sparaxis
Daffodils
Tulips

I have never grown Gerbera, Dahlia and Pyrethrum before so if anyone has experience of growing these all advice would be greatly appreciated. I've got seeds for Gerbera, Dahlia and Pyrethrum and also some Dahlia tubers.

Canterbury bells, wallflowers, loads of bulbs, gaillardias, cosmos, delphiniums, perennial sunflowers, rudbeckias, echinacea, heleniums, crocosmia, redhot pokers, grasses, especially stipas and miscanthus, pinks, sweet williams, scabious, salvias, calendulas, anenomes,...... flowers have been taking over my vegetable beds but i am just going to sow around them and call them potagers.

my mother, overly excited that i now have a veg patch :D, sent me some corn flowers seeds, also a few others which are more like wild flowers than high end ones. which suits me fine as those are the ones i like better :)
