Always one for a bargain, I bought a set of four named dark foliaged varieties half price last week and potted them up on Sunday.
There’s Tutti Frutti, a new lupin with bicoloured flower spikes, Tequila Sunrise, a bronze foliaged antirrhinum, and Creme Brulee, a new phlox, all from Thompson and Morgan.
This will lead to the likelihood of flooding in vulnerable areas, plus the possible dislodging of fully foliaged tree branches.
