The one with photos - were they all in full flower?

Nice range of plants there Lyn and Malcolm. Enjoy :)

The Leucanthemum Maxima Sunshine - is it a pale shade of yellow? Looks lovely 8)
I'm a big an of Leucanthemum.
One very firm favourite is 'Wirral Supreme'. I have four growing in the garden in different areas. Its surprising how variable they can be in different situations. I bought them last year. They all came back this year and I hope I can get them to establish.
I had a couple before and lost them.

I grew Papaver commutatum from seed this year. Had them before and everyone flipped over them. Fine plants.
Mine haven't started to flower yet, but theres big buds about to pop ;D
