At Great Dixter, Sussex, UK, the display of Tagetes ‘Giant Orange’ (French marigold) and Browallia americana (Amethyst flower) was still looking stunning into the autumn. These half hardy annuals were grown from seed for a summer display.

Creating an airy mass of the small blue flowers at the end of summer is Browallia americana (Jamaican forget-me-not, amethyst flower, bush violet). This tender perennial is from tropical South America and is grown from seed sown in early spring for summer-flowering plants. It grows in fertile, well-drained soil in full sun to half shade. Here is was adding to the late season display at Great Dixter, Sussex, UK.
