Antirrhinum

[~Obsidian~]

Anybody ever grown these? Sowed some seeds in seed trays today, put them in the cold frame/mini greenhouse thingy. Planning to sow them at the back of the garden. (40p a pack from Wilkinson).

mine are small seedlings still!!

I think i found some of these in my front garden, self sown recognised the flowers(3)
what amazed me was that their was relatively little light, less space, and little soil and somehow the managed to thrive

A gorgeous bunch of these in baby pink are growing in my garden (courtesy of who lived there before lol!) BUt again like with the cornfower, am not sure what its seedlings look like they are all mixed up!

Last year's one from seeds kept the foliage all winter! This is what they look like now, no flowers yet but still nice green foliage and they have swapmed the pot they were in lol! I may seperate (there are about 4 in the pot) and put some in the ground :GreenThumbs:

I've planted two trays of those today in my front garden, Inshallah they'll thrive although the soil on the clumpy/clay type.

The ones I posted above in the pot are now waaay too big for it! Today I put it into the ground, next to another which I grew from seed last year as well :up: Mashaallah they are about 5 plants altogether and all are about 3 and a half feet tall! And I can see the flowers beginning to pen (dark pink!) will post some pics soon :)
