Thanks Vivienne - it is such a lovely blog. Both of them. Have decided to just get on and do things rather than waiting for inspiration to randomly strike - always the best way! P xx Sent using BlackBerry® from Orange

That cosmos is Candy Stripe - the seeds were free on the cover of a Gardens Illustrated. And I really like them. Am going to try to collect some seed from them too. And yes - I think a couple of quiet days are needed! P xx Sent using BlackBerry® from Orange

How lovely to hear from you Anna! We didnt get to Kirkcudbright - saving that for our next visit. It was so lovely to be able to visit so many great nurseries and gardens in such a small area. Definitely worth a visit! P xx Sent using BlackBerry® from Orange
