Nicotiana 'Lime Green'

Nicotiana 'Lime Green' or tobacco flower.
The first time I have grown these as the seeds were free with a gardening magazine. Masses of fragrant, lime green, five petalled flowers from July to September. Perfect for the middle of a sunny mixed or annual border, it's renowned for its excellent performance during both heat and wet weather!

Thank you very much Joe. They are standing up well to today's heavy rain, unlike the poor lavender, which is flattened! Have a good weekend, Rosa.

Such a gorgeous little flower.........I love the star-shape and the subtle green-white colours.

You've capture this series beautifully Rosa........lovely light, nicely composed and sharp and detail where they need to be. The main image in particular, with its slightly darker background makes the flowers stand out very well.........but I like the PiPs very much as well. All the images have very complementary out of focus backgrounds too,.

Splendid work Rosa :-).

I hope you have a good weekend, in spite of the weather. We're dog sitting for my daughter while she has a weekend away with her partner, but I doubt we'll be going far!
