Morning everyone, have a lovely day. The Balloon Flower is getting ready to pop now #platycodongrandiflorus #balloonflower 18/7/19 💙💙

Morning Jane, that's really unusual 🙋♂️🙋♂️

They are part of the Campanula family Jeremy. I love them and the way they look like little balloons before they open. Well worth a look @jpea 💙💙

Mine didn’t do very well at all last year but it was a bit crowded in. I’ve given it a tad more space this year Elise. SW facing btw @auricula 👍👍

Morning Jane ..love these 💙

Morning Julie, they’re like miniature hot air balloons @juliesgarden 💙💙

Morning, thanks you too 💙

Morning Jane 🙋🏼♀️

Yours are in front of mine!

Must admit I'm getting very fond of Campanulas so I'll look for this one @pelly

Morning Elaine @wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom 🙋🙋

Mine has shot up all of a sudden Dan @dantolomeo 💙👍

Got this last year from the SGC and thought I’d lost it over winter, so I was delighted when I found it this morning 💙💙Excuse the blurry pic. Cataloguing

That’s definitely a positive Jane 👍 @pelly 😘

I forget about mine every year Jane as they totally disappear but they never fail to come back despite been planted over time n time again 😂😂

Ahh, that explains why I thought I’d lost it Keely, thank you @Keely 🙏🙏

It certainly is Barbara @jacaranda 👍👍
