Sweet William and Sisyrinchium planted out

Coleus sisyrinchium and sweet william update

I have been keeping some coleus, sisyrinchium and sweet william in the porch up until recently, but a couple of days ago I put them in the garden.

Sweet Williams potted up

As I'm running out of available trays I potted some of the sweet williams (sown on 05 April) 'four-to-a-pot'.

Sweet William and Rudbeckia update

From seed sown on 05 April.

Sweet William, Pennisetum and Rudbeckia sown

Only a couple of the sweet william sown on  19 March have germinated, and none of the rudbeckia sown the same day have come up (all of which were seeds saved from last year), so  I've sown some more. I also sowed some pennisetum seed that I saved when I cut the pennisetum back on 15 March - no new growth showing yet).

Courgette, Sweet Wiiliam and Rudbeckia sown

Sweet Williams dug up

Sweet Williams coming to an end so I dug them up and replaced with Coleus. I may plant Sweet William seedlings (seen in front of bed above) in containers later in the year rather than in bed (although I may not have enough Wallflower/Polyanthus to fill bed above in autumn).

Sweet William Update
