this is why the garden makes me so happy ! aside from all the edibles, a posy as pretty as this every day of the summer if i wish.
these are scabiosa, marketed as pincushion flowers in b+q last year, and the pink one in the middle is an aquilegia.
it'll be sweet pea season soon.

a new obsession: saving seed
these are the tiny seeds of the pink aquilegia that i bought from the bohemia market this year.
