Flowers In Barrel
I have acquired half a barrel which I am going to put in my garden.
I want to have bright/colourful flowers in it - all year round - or for as long as possible - swapping them in/out as necessary. I am thinking of Bizzy Lizzies - Primulas - Polyanthus - any other suggestions or comments please. |

Lobelia "Crystal Palace" or another trailing/pendant lobelia. Dwarf Nasturtium to trail over the barrel edge (it will survive not being watered if you forget and everything else dies). -- Jeff |
