A blast of orange cheerfulness to start the week and a new month. Chrysanthemum 'Dixter Orange' This sits in a pot by the front door - a great welcome home. For a weekly dose of floral cheer into your inbox, just follow my blog.
I had something else in mind for today's Cheering Up Mondays flower but recent events changed my mind. The sunflower is the national flower of Ukraine. No other words needed. For a weekly dose of floral cheer, sign up for an email alert.
An old favourite for this week's cheerful flower. Geranium 'Splish Splash'. This is growing in the gravel underneath the pergola - definitely not where I planted it! It's happy though so I won't be moving it. For a weekly dose of floral cheer, sign up for an email alert.

Interested to know if anybody manages to get their tete-a-tete to produce two ‘tetes’ in subsequent years from the initial purchase. I can’t and have planted sacksful of tetes in the past.
I was wondering the same as Lynda. My tête-à-tête only produce one flower per stem. My ‘Eaton Song’ on the other hand are multi-headed for the second year of flowering.

Not something I’ve managed.

My ‘Eaton Song’ are also multi-headed – such a lovely variety.
