Some of the lovely wild and not-so-wild flowers in my garden from the seed packets I planted, and the geraniums are planted cuttings given to me by others on and off here. =D

Sharon from Te Atatu South

Here ya go Kirsteen and everybody else who would enjoy this - geraniums (first photo, and some of the others) some poppies included - Californian, as in the second photo (orange, with four petals) and a pink poppy in the third, evening primrose flowers in the fourth, 16th and 17th photos, pansies and begonias in the 5th, cosmos in the 8th and 9th (which also has blue lobelias), cineraria (10th), magenta spreen (13 and 14, that's a vegetable a bit like spinach, but has beautiful bright leaves that look like someone spray-painted them in the centre of the plant), calendula (15), daisy (19), spider lilies (20) beside my rusty improvised birdbath (21), which is really a blue-tack-bunged planter on a rusty glass-top table, hehehe, and agapanthus growing as a rather beautiful weed beside my wall (22). =D
