Gorgeous colour combo. I've got roses,cosmos ,Rudabekia, Michaelmas Daisies and Japanese anemones in flower at the moment as well as some cheerful violas x
Lovely mixed bunch of flowers Alisonjayne. I looked out my kitchen window earlier and found a beautiful red "Etoile due Holland" rose out, next door to my creamy/red freckled winter flowering clematis "Freckles", a charming, if unexpected, combination!
I have been waiting for like what seems forever for the Cosmos to bloom, I started them in March! We said (hubby and I) that we wouldn't grow them again next year but I think I will actually as once they get going, they look wonderful.
Must stop buying more plants, repeat, must stop buying....
I think this summers heat has been exceptional. My cosmos were very sparse flowerers until it cooled off a bit, now they are flowering well. Most years they are no problem and flower well from June to frosts.
