I had to buy…

... these beautiful regal pelargoniums. As I keep complaining, I lost my whole collection in the severe winter. An excuse to buy more.





This one is called ‘Chocolate’ and is darker than it looks in the photo. It’s actually pretty much the colour of my ‘Blood Red’ wallflowers.

Very pretty! I love the colour of the bottom one particularly.

What a lovely blog you have!
I wish that there was another name for blogs,it always sounds so dreary.

Thank you! I agree about 'blog' and the spellchecker on Eudora always wants to change it to 'bog'!

Thank you! It is really gorgeous, deep and glossy.

I love them both :-)
I want a Chocolate Cosmos but haven't seen any this year.

That's garden centres for you, always waiting until a plant is in flower before offering it. I used to have a chocolate cosmos planted right against the house ad it came through several winters.

Very lovely.

I especially like the choice of music. Did you enjoy the A2A finale?

Thank you!
Seldom has an hour passed more quickly. It was all so dense I'll have to watch it again. I was sorry they missed out The Final Countdown but the Bowie song seems like Gene's anthem.

They are so beautiful. I especially like the 'Chocolate' one ... I'm going to be on the lookout for one of those if we can get them here.

I'm buying plants instead of books at the moment!
