I can't remember exactly what i put in there...
Shasta daisy and corncockle shared the same bag! I hope you can pick out.
Some verbascum
A couple if scabious
Annual mallows
And having a brain like a sieve at the moment - I can't remember what else!

I can see what you mean about "lots of tape". The packets were stuck together by the tails of the sellotape. I'll take some scissors to them as I have lots of free time .

I found took ages to germinate. They took about 2 weeks but all eventually popped... Im hoping i put in the pink loveliness in too, but I can't remember!

....I would have put 10 in if I'd done it. I was a bit rushed to get it to the PO - the ones with just mallow written on will be the mont blanc

Ok, hopefully my seeds are on their way from a priority post box tonight. I expect that I have done something wrong, as usual, but fingers crossed that an envelope of seeds turns up at Veggie's house.

And mine will be sent tomorrow! Or Sunday! (Last minute Larry all the way)
