LOL! :D  WHat didn't work for me?!  My carefully tended and trained - up- a - trellis "morning glory" finally flowered-
and turned out to be bindweed! 8)  They don't call me the dullest tool in the shed for nothin'. ;D

Hi everyone,
GrannieAnnie if i'm not mistaken i think morning glory and bindweed are of the same family so don't sweat yourself you mean't to grow its cousin right! ;)

Yes, one is perennial, one annual but the leaf is somewhat different thinner and puckered so I should have seen the red flag.

I bought cosmos seeds for about 39p and then planted them along side an ugly area, the council fence on the allotment. They have made a great cover and the flowers are attracting more insects than is usually seen on flowers.

For the 39p I got over a hundred plants.

A good buy from Wilkies

I love Nigellas and once you've sown them you have them for life! ;D
