... down by the shore -








The above flowers were in great profusion in a bed that was a good 50 meters along the shore -

ohhh lovely kedi just love the colours of them

[DAG]

Agree with linda, and I bet they self seed everywhere?

Now there's a thought! ;D

[kedigato]

I'm sure they do. Peter gathered a couple of seed heads from both of them and scattered them here in the kids garden.

We'll probably go again so I'll get some for you DAG. Anyone else?

[DAG]

Oh thank you, just one more thing, could you bring back some of your weather to go with it? ;D

[linda]

i would love them but ive no room on my balcony and as dag said bring back that lovely weather for us ;D ;D

[nazimundo]

[kedigato]

PM me your address, Alfie, and I'll get some off as soon as I get them.

Well, I'd be happy to get rid of some of this hot weather, it was just over 30°C today again. Anything over 25°C is too much for me.

[kedigato]

PS - Of course, I'll get yours off at the same time, DAG.

[DAG]

;D Thank you kedi, very kind of you, now let me see, so you are sending the seeds, the weather to grow them and the land to plant them in, ha ha!

I only have a small letterbox! ;D

[linda]

dag you should get kedi to bring you one of them american mailboxes back ;D ;D

[nazimundo]

I found out today what kind of flowers these are Kedi, they are known as Blanket flowers.

Here's a link with some info about them

Well done, Alfie! I've noticed that they are used a lot here in flower beds done by the city or in parks. I always say that anything used by them must be hardy to withstand the exhaust fumes along the roads etc.

Goodness, all the uses the Indians put them to! ;D ;D
