[Farhan Ahmed]

Tahir, Rafique Sb, hakraza, Munir Sb and hassan please require your input....

[Hamad Ahmed Kisana]

farhan bhai i think your second choice is better because mostly flowers are perennial it means they will bloom for us and chance is that will remain with us for next year.my choice from t&m is Hibiscus moscheutos 'Disco Sun Belle Mixed'if possible and
Clematis mandschurica
Manchurian Clematis, Clematis terniflora var. mandshurica
Hardy Perennial .
otherwise i am completely agree with you on t&ms choice

[Farhan Ahmed]

Okay lets see what others have to say. meanwhile i will check the seed qty of varieties you mentioned, so that can they be divided.

i am confused because scabiosa and candytuft variety by sutton is better than T & M.
amarathus and oseteopermum is not available with T & M
and canary creeper qty is 30 in sutton and 15 in T & M

[Farhan Ahmed]

@hakraza
Hibiscus seed count is 10(so one will get max 5 if two members willing)
Clematis....i doubt will survive...and as it states experience required in germination.
are you willing to share any of my suggested items?

In my suggested list from T & M..only hosta is difficult to germinate( i tried earlier as well)......but it would be a big achievement if we get even a single hosta plant)

[Hamad Ahmed Kisana]

ok i agree with you .i have mentioned before that i am 100 % agree with your selected seeds so you can final on my behalf i will share every seed with you.have you tried agertum before it its very ordinary plant i have grown its blue type.it was just like a weed very small flowers and foliage like a weed.

[Farhan Ahmed]

I have not tried ageratum before. Anyways its in seedbypost deal.
However look at this from Sir Arif.

The one we are trying for is similar in height 20 inches
