All year round Wall basket - drought resistant!

sheltered but don't get a lot of rain. I would ideally like to plant something now and be able to leave it to do its thing throughout the year with just a littel bit of maintenance. I would also like the planters to look good in the winter/autumn too. Ok am by NJJ272

Himalayan blue poppy

of these lovely plants is just that, I'm afraid, a dream. I have hundreds of the blowsy bright scarlet double oriental poppies, which I can't eradicate ( even if I wanted to! ) which grow and proliferate like weeds! Peaty soil, lots of rain, cold winters, late by Rosemary Hawley

Broadcasting poppy seeds into the border

it. 2,000 poppy sides in palm of hand and scattered them with abandon around the borders. Lord knows where they have landed - but good shower of rain will hopefully get them going. Quite excited now with the anticipation of what its going to look by Tim Burr
