Goodness these are hard to grow from seed but have #selfsown in the garden!? Oh well just happy to have them wafting in the borders!😊💜

In coming!!!! #verbena is a summer favourite wafting above the borders, but looks like I’m not the only one! Have a wonderful #wildlifewednesday 😊 exciting day of choosing the cut flowers today from various friends’ gardens for my daughter’s wedding- 3 more sleeps 🎩 👰

Yes @SylviaDavies it must look fab in your gorgeous borders.. it's perfect @pelly as it doesn't take up much room and adds frothy height above your planting - gotta love more plants per square inch!
