Domes of white, frothy flowers. The dried seedheads are also very nice. These are planted in paper pots which can be placed straight into the soil (the plants don't like root disturbance).


3. Lemon bergamot / Beebalm / Lemon mint ?1.50


Spikes of pink/purple flowers with lemon-scented leaves. A good cut flower. The seedheads are very attractive and can be left for winter interest.

4. Scabiosa fata morgana ?1.50 (small), ?1.75 (large)


Also known as the pincushion plant because the flower resembles a pincushion. Beautiful cream-apricot flowers. Great cut flower.

5. Dahlia - La Recoleta? - ?4


A black/red dahlia. Around 12 inches of growth and ready to be planted into a bigger pot or the ground. Not entirely sure of the variety as it was sent to me in error by a nursery and I only discovered the error when it flowered. However, I think it maybe be recoleta. It's a pretty, dark, velvety red/black variety but just doesn't go with anything else I have.

Collection from Forest Hill. Weekends and weekday evenings work the best.


Thanks.

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though.

    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
