Cloudy 6°C / 42°FI love these. They are very early and such a pretty shade of purple with those very distinct markings. They are only about 5 inches tall. I think the cluster is definitely larger than last year.

33°C / 91°FI can see why they call them ‘Teddy Bear.’ They are only about 6 inches tall and are supposed to be dwarf, though I think they should be a bit taller than that, probably stunted by the flooding. The flower is very puffy with lots of petals.

Happy little dwarf wallflowers
Wiley wallflowers Planting Out and 1. Formal Front gardenSunny 15°C / 59°FThe local market has a flower stall that sells wallflowers in bunches of approximately 10 for a quid, so I bought two bunches. I was told these are dwarf wallflowers, so I expect that they won’t be as tall as the common all garden ones. I can’t say much more than that as they did not have any mor...
