Hi I am new here so i would like to take the opportunity to say hi and
also how wonderful it is to disover this kind of discussion available
on the internet!

I have set aside a part of my garden which is just in view from the
kitchen window and would like to add some colour, hopefully you can
help.

I am looking for two or three types of flowers to plant which will
provide me with a mass of colour. One i would like to spread out and
fill an area but also stand about 2 feet high. The other I would like
to see standing prominently above this and holding a different colour
possibly on stalks.

Can you suggest anything for me?

With thanks.

Lavender, rosemary, Gaura, Knautica macedonica, Verbena bonariensis,
Astrantia and for *real* height, Cephalaria gigantea!
