    I have three Giant Yellow and one self-seeded one. Looking forward to seeing what that one's like! They are all about 50cm tall just now.

        Yup!

        Teddy Bear;
        Topolino; and
        A "giant" type that is a mystery to me...

          I have one or two self seeders just starting to come up. If they manage to keep growing, they are welcome, but they won't get any fuss.

          Endless wonder.

                          I'm growing Jade green, Pastiche, Vanilla Ice, and Irish eyes. They're all looking a bit sad at the moment but hopefully will pick up when the sun arrives.

                            Thanks for reminding me I meant to grow sunflowers
                            I've just chucked - I mean sown - some, rather randomly in any available space

                              Earthwalker - just a few squashed in amongst the veg. It's a glorious colour.
