    Presenting... Indian Carpet Mixed

    Ladies and Gentlemen..

    Presenting...Sweet William (Indian Carpet Mixed)- Dianthus barbatus.
    Large, brightly coloured and beautifully scented flowers on dwaft compact plants, ideal for early bedding displays and for colour in containers.

    A dwarf, compact mixture ideal for early bedding.


    I have planted the seeds last April and just had flowers this spring. I've waited for one year!...

    What other flowering plants do you guys can suggest? I prefer the perennial ones...

    I hope to have tulips in my garden but it says the sowing time will be in Aug-Sept and slugs like them so much that they require much attention compared to other flowering plants.

    Cheers!...

    It's good to have money and the things that money can buy, but it's good to check up once in a while to make sure you haven't lost the things that money can't buy.

    Thank you very much indeed!. Thank you Florge, Mrs Daddy & Sophie. I'm not fond of gardening but when i came here i was amazed by the beauty of the flowers i saw in most of the gardens and/or in the patios of the houses. I said.... "someday i will have those in my garden".

    They say that English people are obsessed with DIY and gardening. It is a national pastime.

    I have the polyanthus (large flower mixed) and begonia (white and picotee salmon) and flowers bloomed last March but i can't find the picture i have taken......

    Now i have babies in the making heheh.. /i have now started sowing... I hope i will see them grow..

    Aubrieta (cheeky mix) and hollyhock (chater's mix)

    because i didn't see these seeds grow...
    the russell hybrids and sidalcea (partygirl)

    Happy gardening to all..

    Cheers!

    Dear Sili,
    If you love to have flowers you can plant them in small pots. It's ok even if you don't have a big garden. Some are good in patios and hanging baskets infront of your house.

    Labs,
    Latik

    Cheers!
