I’ve managed to have black poppies, white poppies and red poppies bloom this year and the bees love them! The have all been planted from seed in May. What have other people planted and now blooming?

    A ‘my self flower’ from seed, is it an annual?

    The rhubarb has new stems every day - I’ll have to either invent rhubarb wine or start on Rhubarb + ginger jam because I can’ keep doing crumble + sponge

    Been nurturing a miniature sunflower since March which has just started to flower?

    Your poppies look lovely @Duninn

    Don't talk about rhubarb ,  I had someone dig mine out as I didn't want it anymore, been in the garden about 10 years, took it out and low and behold it started growing back,  :/ got the new stems dug out, and it's back again.

    @Sandy_123 I was told was to plant it in a pot so I did!  It’s like mint - grows anywhere
