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.
You don't stop doing new things because you get old, you get old because you stop doing new things.
