Alcea rosea 'Chater's Double Group Red'

How cool!!! I put that one on my wishlist. Thought u were gone???

Thanks Terri. I'm still here. Did you mean my forthcoming trip to the States? That will be next month @terrimclaughlin

Thanks @gjones I must get some more doubles, but hoping for some interesting crosses with the other ones! 😊

Yes I meant your trip coming over here?? I sure hope you have a great time!!! Who's going to care for your gardens???@jeatacake

Well, good question! It'll be autumn by then (mid September) & things will be slowing down, so outside, no real worries. The various tomato & cucumber plants etc, in the greenhouse will be the main concern though @terrimclaughlin

Thanks @cyndi I may have some seeds on these to bring over next month 😉

It's my pleasure @cyndi Many on this wonderful site have done the same for me & I am delighted if I can bring a little happiness from my far away garden 😊

That's beautiful 💗

Beautiful! Any tips on preventing rust on them?@jeatacake

Hi Lizbeth. Thank you 😊. Maybe I'm lucky (so far) as they've not had any really, although I did 3 to 4 years ago where I used to live. I have heard that a spray with milk works well for fungal diseases like this & mildew, so maybe worth a try? @yourturn

Thanks, I'll give it a try @jeatacake
