The garden's had a bit of a slow start this Autumn, so hopefully there'll be more colour soon when the annuals begin to bloom. <br /><br />You're so right about common names ... that's why I try to use the Botanic names wherever possible to avoid confusion ... still learning those however!BernieHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04435004798656616711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481571533790905294.post-28630818965496217712010-05-17T17:04:01.356+10:002010-05-17T17:04:01.356+10:00Lovely colourful flowers :-) I am looking out for...Lovely colourful flowers :-) I am looking out for the Impatiens but perhaps its too early for them here just yet over here.

In this area what we call 'bachelelor's buttons' are Centaurea cyanus, quite a different plant from your 'bachelor's buttons'.Kit Aerie-elhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06548961699994971020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481571533790905294.post-35382317487831409922010-05-16T16:43:06.393+10:002010-05-16T16:43:06.393+10:00Diane ...

Both are planted as seedlings during mid to end of Autumn and they will then flower right through to the Summer. The Violas usually give up around the beginning of our summer up here.BernieHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04435004798656616711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481571533790905294.post-16087835040668497862010-05-16T16:11:46.689+10:002010-05-16T16:11:46.689+10:00I just lost my comment.

Thanks for your great comment ... glad you enjoyed the Bauhinia as much as I do. <br /><br />As for 'finally have a bloom' ... Autumn is the start of our best growing time here in my spot in north-east downunder.
