Whats the best flowers for me ?
Go for self seeding annuals. You need to buy a packet now throw them on the ground (you may have to rake them in a bit)and then forever after they will grow from their own seeds;



Try whichever of these you like the look of and buy the packets at any garden centre or try somewhere like Woolies or a supermarket;





Cornflower Centaurea cyanus

California Poppy Eschscholzia

Candytuft Iberis

Clarkia

Cosmos spp.

Flax Linum

Forget-Me-Nots Cynoglossum

Gloriosa Daisy Rudbeckia hirta

Love-in-a-Mist Nigella damascena

Nasturtium Tropaeolum majus

Pot Marigold Calendula

Spider Flower Cleome spp.

Sunflower Helianthus

Tall Verbena Verbena bonariensis
Reply:These are quick and easy- get them at a garden centre or garden store

Poppies ( Eschscholzia are my favourite) -red yellow orange

Marigolds (Tagetes and Calendula type) - yellow orange

Cornflowers (Centaurea) - blue pink white

Love in a mist (Nigella) - blue
