Hi all,
I am a beginner flower gardener (apart from companions for my veggies) and have offered to grow some red and yellow (Spain colours) flowers for my friends wedding in mid June! I think I'm going to grow pots of flowers to dot around the place and guests can take them home as gifts. Any ideas of what flowers I can grow?? Any ideas welcome, I'm a total novice!!!!
Hi Biscombe,
Wow, quite an undertaking for a novice. I would suggest you contact a local university or arboretum to see what would be in bloom in June and when to start the seeds. The hardiness zones in Spain range from 6 to 10. Without knowing your zone it would be most difficult to say when to start the seeds indoors or even outdoors.
Here are some gardens that are open to the public in Spain.

There is the Jardi Botanic - University of Valencia, Valencia, Spain
Jardin Botanico Atlantico.
Here's some others I found.
