There are a lot of 'self-set' plants in our garden. I suppose technically they should be called weeds. To be honest some of them are so pretty it would be a shame to pull them up. Especially when the seed pods are just as interesting to look at as the blooms.
We live in a valley which leads to the sea. The garden can be exposed to high winds and salty air so many plants can't cope unless they are in a sheltered nook.
Sometimes it's better to let nature take it's course, these plants can take whatever conditions are thrown at them. The local bees seem to appreciate them too.
Oh you couldn't possibly pull these up, they're so pretty. Some of the best planting combinations in my garden are self sown (don't know what that says about my planned plantings...)!
