HELP me please!!

plants are better value. Have a look at perennial wallflowers Erysimum 'Bowles's Mauve' or Lavenders, Hebes are good but a little boring. Hardy fuchsias. Daffodils are good value. I would also consider growing cosmos from seed. All hardy annuals are good by natalia85

Talkback: Growing alliums: best varieties
