Gorgeous 🤗

So pretty. Love the colours. 😍😍

I need these 💛💛

Wow! Great shot Kerry! I love this flowers! 💘😍

@godfreye @hkyfvr @juliesgarden @KOutdoors @ShelleySnyder thank you all 😃 the spikes are small this year but still get to see those fuzzy stamen, looking like someone on their back with arms & legs in the air 🤣

Very welcome!💘😍

Most welcome. They are reaching out for a hug 🤣😂 Maybe they will catch some bush crickets. 😆🤣

@hkyfvr like an attractive Venus fly trap 😆

🤣😂

Love the fluffy bits in the middle 😆👌🏼

Just too pretty. I only managed to get one of mine to grow in the end, it shouldn't be too long before it flowers but I hope it's this one 💜💜💜

This is so pretty Kerry. 🤍💜

Great name….😆

@wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom like 4 fluffy legs with little yellow shoes 😂

@pelly fingers crossed it’s this one 😛 they’re really lovely plants 💚

@hkyfvr thanks Diane 😊 not so many flowers this year after dividing it but all 3 divisions are doing well 😁

@gjones I read about the heat you’re getting in Canada 😔 I hope it’s only the flowers that are suffering 🥵

@wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom isn’t it 😛

Very welcome Kerry. Glad they are all doing well. We have been hot here with a lot of rain but it has cooled off tonight for a few days reprieve 👍👍💕

@gjones I can imagine it’s quite a difference when you’re used to having AC through the hottest part of the day 😜 those kinds of temperatures are just evil. I hope it doesn’t go on too long and you get a break of weather very soon 🤞🏻🤞🏻

How pretty 👌💕🤍💕

Kerry, thats a beautiful bloom and well done from seed, how long would that process take from seed to flower? something I'm going to attempt once my greenhouse is in..

Soooo pretty 😍😍. High Five !! Growing from seeds. 😀😀

Lovely, I’ve done this one too but they’re not flowering yet 💞

Never tried growing these from seed @kez001uk but looks beautiful.

Well done looks great

Pretty! Would love to see the plant. I LOVE SILVER FOLIAGE! <3

That's just too pretty 🌸 is this the one you sent me seeds for Kerry? 🤔

Really pretty 💕🐰💕

Oooooooooooooooo😘👌🏼

Beautiful 💗

Can't wait to see that in flower 😯

@jeatacake me either 😛 only had a few small flowers last year but it’s muuuuuch bigger now 🤪

@gjones I’m so glad they’ve done well for you ☺️ think they’re wonderful plants. Underrated!

The flowers may still be small, but you'll get plenty of them 👍

Love the name!

It's beautiful 😍

@bandicoot it’s great isn’t it 😂

@auricula aren’t the fluffy bits so cute 😛

@jeatacake thank you Jeff 😁

@gjones they’re adorable aren’t they 🥰

@KOutdoors it’s the purple & orange I love most 💜🧡

@KOutdoors absolutely they do. One of the better colour combos 😛

@KOutdoors you’re so lucky to have them appear like that 😛 must be generous birds up your way 😉

💜🧡

@gardengirlla they’re the cutest little flowers. Love the purple & orange fuzzy bits

Gorgeous

@madguk thanks Mags 😀 can’t wait to see what a whole spike of these looks like 😋

@cyndi aren’t they unusual 😛 thought it was some weird bug at first 😂

@cyndi I love the photos you’ve posted of that 🧡 they do look very similar 😛 thanks Cyndi 😁

@cyndi I started them late May/early June and they’ve just come into flower. Only sowed a few but a good percentage germinated. Can pit some seeds in with your others if you’d like?

@cyndi I didn’t expect they’d flower so soon as my other verbascum took til the following year. I’ll add them in for you 😁

@gjones aren’t they! 🥰 adorable little things 😛

@cyndi you should have already had a load from the last lot of seeds I sent you. Made sure these were in there. You’ll love them, they are the cutest little flowers 🤍💜🧡

@cyndi I bet you have a huge load to get started! 😜 I’m overwhelmed with the few packs I have to sow 🤣

@cyndi I know the feeling! But I’m trying to scale back this year because I end up with too much to take care of, especially in the early growing stages 😜 I honestly don’t know how you keep I’m up with it all! Hats off to you 😛
