Looking good @Keely

@juliesgarden @cyndi @nmg333 thank you lovely peeps 😄

Love these. Mine are way behind ☺️

You beat me on the Alliums and the Aquilegias Keely 💜💜

@susanhumphrey333 lost a few of mine to the beast all my swan ones never came back had 3 last year and some of my ones I've had in for years are really struggling, this is in hottest border, done some more from seed for next year now 😄

@pelly they are only first ones Jane just opened up today after a good feed last night gave them all a soaking and used Richard Jackson's plant feed 😄 certainly opened them up today 🙆

Fingers crossed for mine tomorrow, I’ll give them a feed. 👍👍

I've had these for years Keely, but never had a plant come up in the same place. Stupid question probably, but are they perennial then? Mine just self seed and surprise me the next year. I should have researched them by now, but I've just let them do their own thing really

@susanhumphrey333 yes perennial and bulk up each year I split this purple one last year so have 2 clumps of it, I've never let mine self seed though Ive always cut the heads off them to the base 😄

Mine never survive then. I wonder why🤔 Would be lovely if they kept increasing in size. I'm assuming the flowers are the same when they survive, as I think sewing the seed never produces the same flowers ? Just picking your brains 😆

Love the #newgrowth on the purple ones 💜💜💜

These won't be long now 👍

Love the colour purple

I'm starting to love columbines, the variety! @keely

Heres page 2. 😥

Oh no 😞

@lovemygarden65 just looked and as I save all my magazines month order it was published in last years picked up wrong magazine from shelf, may still be relevant though unless found something over the year to control it ! Now i will read this years lol!

@keely Why is there suddenly all kind of viruses attacking our plants & trees. There's certainly a lot more than used to be. By the way when I put @Keely in why does predictive text always complete by putting in 'Jerky'?😂😂This is the worst connecting pred text I've ever come across. 😡

@angipangi i know Mo its sad times for plants we just have to keep propagating them n grow more

Sorry mo hadn't finished! I usually get kelly or keilly not jerky lol why do they put srnd button so close to text forever push button before ive finished! Needs to be underneath 😁

I've had some aquilegias go bad this year I'm hoping it's not this.I'm going to check mine see if it's the same @keely

#aquilegiadownymildewdisease looks like I've got this

@rosesforme awe sorry to hear that its sad we loose plants to these causes we do all we can to prevent things happening and sometimes nature of some form takes it from us 😥

I am gutted but got to stay strong and fight against this it's going to be a long battle but we're get though it it's not taking my plants with out a fight 😡😁💚🌹#keely

Page 1 of 2 for those that have not seen this months magazine . oh no poor plants!!

I was going to sow some of the 30 odd types of seed I've amassed but might hold off!

I feel sorry for Carrie Thomas, she and her collection was featured on Gardeners World, and inspired me to grow aquilegias.

🤔😮

Such beautys

Gorgeous :)

Super pastel colour

That's a lovely one @Keely 😀👍🏼

Love getting home from work and seeing whats opened in the garden 😃
