Borders

[Muhammad Arif Khan]

I used to plant Gemolepsis on the border, It made a bright border but the bloom lasted for a short time.



Now I have changed to borders of Wallflower, the border lasts for a long time

Great! Brig Sb, which is the light purple/lilac colour flower between Gerbera & Antirrhinum ? Is it Aster? Looks enchanting.

Correct, it is the improved form of wild ageratum common along the canal bank at thokar. I am looking for other colours but unfotunately our vendors do not carry it.

Wall flower looks good even in location as below.

Brig Arif, does Ageratum flowers actually look so good as in this picture? If so, why are they not very common? I think I have not seen them so far, certainly never grown them. I ll therefore, like to try them this time, after your confirmation.

[Farhan Ahmed]

Pride seeds have ageratum in their seed catalog.

[Munir]

Thank you, I have the said catalog. But I ll prefer already grown seedlings from a nursery. Otherwise also,isn't it rather late now to use seeds?

Ageratum is very rare flower.not rare because its not available but i think many gardeners do not prefer it.its available at Pak flora nursery.Brig sb your bed is very beautiful.some years back you posted the same great picture.its shows how much you love your garden,hard work.
