The flowering season is fast coming to an end. The only flowers in my garden now are the Strawflowers and Dahlias.
The Strawflowers are still producing beautiful blooms but come a few more weeks and I’ll be pulling them up. As for the Dahlias, I’ll be lifting and storing in a week . Last year I did this but sadly lost a few tubers in the cold snap we had, so I’ll be bringing them into the garage this winter as I don’t want to lose the ones I have as I was so pleased with them and they dried so well.
In the greenhouse the Ranunculus are busy growing. They were a little slow so but I think it was too warm for them, so now it’s cooler they have been fast to sprout!!
I’ve been busy sowing all my hardy annuals in the greenhouse. So the Larkspur has germinated, the Ammi, Hares Tail grasses, Briza Maxima and my new ‘Bowling Ball’ Poppies which I’m super excited for next year!
