I've tried countless new plants after seeing them. Love the colours in your vase despite the dahlia not being what you wanted.

The Rudbeckia is wonderful too but, like Echinacea, that's an expensive annual here so I try to close my eyes and walk by when I see the plants in my local garden center.Kris Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07097260283693156795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5059858774072695860.post-32968533757805369522018-09-17T19:59:04.767+01:002018-09-17T19:59:04.767+01:00Thank you.
