Kathy thanks undecided of what to plant in my raised bed for the summer want a real splash of colour.

 

How about a Dulux colour chart Kat? :D Sorry. Couldn't resist.

 

You are so funny John certainly be a splash of colour.

 

:D :D cheeky :D :D

 

Kathy you know I can take it

But seriously want colour of plants to be spectactular kinda a WOW look.

 

scotkat, i love red, orange, and yellow flowers together, they look so hot, even on a cold dull day...

 

YDD you got my kinda colour thinking going on there.

Raised bed does not get sun until evening at front of house.

 

Woo that's so lovely.

I'm gonna have a look for them. Are they easy to grow?

Scotkat, i have pots too. I'm definately going to have to buck my ideas up!

cheers

 

We can all help you with ideas and colours.

Good luck Sandra

 

Thanks.

I've never heard of Mimulas. Are they related to Primulas? That's a serious question when you've all picked yourselves up from laughing :D
I've just read that, am i getting confused between Primrose & the cheese?

Anyway i'm going to have a look round B&Q tomorrow. Thinking about what colour flowers i have this year (hope to have), i haven't got any vibrant coloured ones.

Apart from the Magic Rainbow, what do you suggest? I can't buy too many, hubby already thinks i'm mad (Not really, he's pleased i'm into it) but i do have a lot of seeds & i counted 21 pots & containers in the garage this week, plus about 15 already in the garden :eek:

Thanks again.

cheers

 

Sandra give you one tip I would not b ebuying any summer bedding yet to plant outside unless you can keep them in greenhouse or indoors untill feer of all frosts are past.

In scotland we certainly would not put any summer bedding or hanging baskets out untill 1st oe even 2nd week in June.

I am so proud of you .

 

Kath if the weather keeps up like this, and last year,it will be the middle of August,last year i had to do my baskets twice :(
