I've grown 'Gwendoline' for the last couple of years and have been delighted with her. I have acquired a packet of 'Midnight' with one of the gardening mags so will be trying them this year for the first time as my darkest colour in my mix. <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10794392333038962798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-66679866226343637722017-01-01T16:12:59.369+00:002017-01-01T16:12:59.369+00:00That is frustrating Sue, hope your new choices wor...That is frustrating Sue, hope your new choices work for you. I've grown Midnight before its a great colour. I'm really loving the ones with delicate mottling on and edging colours this year. Have a look at Wiltshire Ripple looks great with Midnight.<br />Happy New Year to you and your family, here's hoping we have a good growing year in 2017.Annie_Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03140041665657746319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-34577636027366419302016-12-31T10:54:46.174+00:002016-12-31T10:54:46.174+00:00I wish the same for you, ElaI wish the same for you, ElaSue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-43648558599920872052016-12-31T08:14:37.426+00:002016-12-31T08:14:37.426+00:00Thank you for our beautiful friendship blogging in...Thank you for our beautiful friendship blogging in 2016 !!<br />I wish You and Your Family a Happy New Year 2017 !!Elahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07233606648281104359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-57306564249294623152016-12-30T23:15:54.930+00:002016-12-30T23:15:54.930+00:00I really like the blues and lavenders too, CJ.I really like the blues and lavenders too, CJ.Sue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-89568788806195468802016-12-30T23:14:22.836+00:002016-12-30T23:14:22.836+00:00Good idea, Jayne.
