Thanks everyone. Kitten, the seeds are from Kings, these ones called Giant Chabaud Mixed.

Blooming great. Me and my In-Law grew lots many years ago but had to always cover the area with plastic to protect them. Well worth the effort.

Hey ken - what do you mean about covering in plastic - like fleece to protect from bugs etc?

Thanks simon, will give them a go next year, they're so pretty ;D
