Post by Muhammad Arif Khan »

Nothing much in this heat, a few Daylilies are still in bloom, Vinca is getting ready to put up a show, old Crasandra is stealing the show.

Those were perhaps annuals, any way they did not survive.

I am thinking to stop growing Summer annuals. It is too hot here in Lahore for any thing to put up a good show.
Vinca, Cosmos, Coks comb, Balsom,none is worth the effort.
Wouldn't it be better to give the potting soil and my self rest during summer? :lol:

The picture is not showing the true colour it is actually dark maroon. I have not been able to locate its name, it was purchased from Adnan 5 years ago. It is supposed to be a slow growing dwarf.
