Strange how memory works. 
At school we had individual labelled bed of Annuals, Half Hardy Annuals, Biennilas and Perennials. The gardening teacher was also the maths tutor so he had us learning the plants the way we learned our maths tables, parrot fashion.
Its well over 50 years ago that I used to help out in the school gardens and I can still remember the order of the rows of hardy annuals to this day!
We had Larkspur,Cosmos, Lavatera ,Cornflower, Calendula, Eschaltzia,Clarkoa, Godetia and Love Lies Bleeding in that exact order in the annual bed!
As you were..........carry on!
