      • A little Sedum of some sort. My Grannie always called this one ‘Spider Plant’ on account of the web like structures on the top of the rosettes.

            A nepeta (no fragrance - so of no use to my Rufus!)
            Think it was called “Patchwork” when I got it a few years ago.

              The first of many strawflowers from a packet of L**l cheapo seed. (29p if I remember correctly).
              Looks like I’ve got some nice red ones to open too.

                • Flower head on some sort of bunching onion - with bee. Should be able to save some seeds from this one - whatever it is.

                  • California had a super bloom but I have my own. Californian poppies courtesy of L**l. These are all self sown.

                    • A flower I associate with Chr******, flowering in June!! It flowered last summer and I stuck it in the GH and ignored it Seems it only had the energy to grow a short stalk this year!

                      Not sure how there's a lettuce growing beside it

                      • Campanula medium, a bi-annual from self saved seed. The seed is like dust but grows to this size, amazing

                        • A Jasmine with Variegated leaves in a tangle of Grapevine, Honeysuckle and Hypericum on the old shed. Smells divine and the bees love this jungle.

                              I have a red beesianum, bought from Morries a few weeks ago - haven't decided where to plant it yet!
