Well here's something which always gives me a lot of pleasure, some of the many self set pansy/viola crosses which give an amazing array of colour every year.

I have grown a few from seed some years ago, bought a tray of half dead ones from a supermarket, and had self set wild heartsease. All of these keep making beautiful crosses, some grow large like the heartsease but with stronger foliage.

This is at the bottom of the red lily bed, around the Nectarine tree, they never fail to make a good show. You can see some in the rose bed behind, it also has some large and bushy plants but with small flowers.
