Behind Door No. 9 is the gift of some honesty, the seeds filched from a client's garden

Door number 10 reveals papaver Lauren’s grape
https://www.chilternseeds.co.uk/item_954...rape_seeds
Until I just googled it I didn’t know papaver was poppy. It seem to be very similar to the poppy seeds I’ve just sent into the seed circle.

My Door 10 hides Allium carinatum ssp pulchellum.
Today's Latin lesson :-
Allium carinatum subsp. pulchellum, also known as keeled garlic or witch's garlic, is a fantastic Allium. It looks like it is from outer space and manages to keep some of its colour when it dries out. Allium carinatum is considered native to the Mediterranean Region from Spain to Turkey, north to Sweden and the Baltic Republics. It is naturalized in the British Isles. The epithet carinatum comes from the latin carinos meaning to supply with a keel or shell. And the subspecies comes from the latin pulchellus for "beautiful"!

Edit Reason: Can't count beyond ten!
)
Behind door No.10 I found some fescue glauca blue which was a real treat as I thought they were all finished.
Behind No. 11 this afternoon I found some agapanthus seeds; no idea if they are blue or white (I have both) or what conditions they like, although it probably isn't torrential rain and cold wet clay

Door 11 concealed Sida Hermaphrodita / Virgina mallow https://www.chilternseeds.co.uk/item_117...maphrodita
It may not be a climber but it grows to 13'!! Loved by bees and may make good food for Mr Greedy.

Door 12 conceals Windowsill Chives "Grolau". https://dev.chilternseeds.co.uk/item_138...ill_grolau
There's not much room on the windowsills but I expect I'll squeeze these in somewhere.
