cat mint (Hockley Port B18)
Gifted
This extra little cat mint plant had seeded itself in with another plant, and I already have plenty. Has nice little blue flowers on in summer that the bees seem to like. Should be obvious, but I'll state it anyway - only to be collected by a cat lover as it is attractive to cats, so not something to grow if you don't want cats in your garden.

Flower seedlings (Hockley Port B18)
Gifted
Lots of lovely self-sown seedlings, rescued while doing some repotting. Includes feverfew, foxglove, purple toadflax, teasel, verbena, verbascum, hollyhock. Some grow very tall like the verbascum and hollyhock, and need to be planted in garden soil. Others are tallish if planted out but can do okay in pots (may need staking). They seedlings are loose in the containers at the moment, so if there is just one particular type of plant you want, let me know.
