A local florist I've met has just done a 3 year course, not full time but still.

I'm surprised you have trouble finding Coriander seed but you know you've got good seed if you save it and it's cheaper too.

It's genetic I understand -you either love it or hate it. <br />So perhaps that's a thing Linaria do?AlisonChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05581689773980266031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5059858774072695860.post-87859246694451507992018-06-12T10:17:04.353+01:002018-06-12T10:17:04.353+01:00Foxgloves are gorgeous and look wonderful in a vas...Foxgloves are gorgeous and look wonderful in a vase; I've allowed in some wild Linaria, I hope it stays subtle and doesn't take over. Coriander is really a winter, spring or autumn plant; it hated getting dry. As it is a seed I have difficulty sourcing here I allow mine to seed and then save them for using all year. The flowers are beautifully delicate and make a good addition to the vase.Christinahttps://myhesperidesgarden.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5059858774072695860.post-42916084576043889662018-06-11T21:58:54.339+01:002018-06-11T21:58:54.339+01:00Yes my seed list is filling up.....and wow those a...Yes my seed list is filling up.....and wow those are gorgeous foxgloves and perfect in the face packed in.Donna@GardensEyeViewhttp://gardenseyeview.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5059858774072695860.post-8236215869127110262018-06-11T21:35:05.457+01:002018-06-11T21:35:05.457+01:00Enchanting.....early summer encapsulated!Enchanting.....early summer encapsulated!Stasherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02616094223215469144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5059858774072695860.post-77362430207104951622018-06-11T21:04:13.196+01:002018-06-11T21:04:13.196+01:00The foxgloves are gorgeous.

On a piece of bread spread with (in my case vegan) cream cheese they are absolutely delicious! ;-) By the way, I had purple Linaria too, but the following years a pink one turned up here and there too... ?Cathyhttp://www.wordsandherbs.comnoreply@blogger.com
