Janet very kindly responded to photo query re Echinops as follows:
The first one is Echinops ritro and the second one seems to be another

Can anyone help re my response?
That's the ones! Thanks Janet. Are they annuals (Do I have to plant them
every year)? How would I go about making sure I have some of these in my
borders next summer? Would I wait until Spring and then propogate from Seed?
You can tell i'm new to this, can't you!
