Now if only badgers could be trained to dig the holes where you want to plant. The echinops looks fascinating, so perfectly round, and beautifully blue.

I need to get me some jars. Love these flower photos--I've been coveting an echinops for a few years, myself. Maybe next year I'll find a nursery who'll get me one. Badgers do love to keep to themselves. Perhaps if Mr. Toad goes on a rampage he'll turn up to set things right. ; ) Your piccalilli recipe sounds yummy. I need to get me some jars.

Karen - We've had enough rain to keep things fresh - but not heavy enough to flatten every thing. It's still too much in my opinion. Chaiselongue - I am envious from here, but would be complaining about the heat if I was there! Titania – I wouldn’t mind if I could get to see the fauna, but it remains invisible!

I didnt know that Allium sphaerocephalon was easy to grow from seed. So thank you for that tip. Lovely Hibiscus. Sorry to hear the badger is back.

The Echinops is such a striking flower, I would like one like this in my garden! Yes, I like Allium too, I plant borders with them, they are not invasive. I like the two flowers together.
