Thank you Eklectic and GramT.
I also have red lavetera below the zinnias and purple datura on part of the border.The top layer all around is cosmos.I have to move the 2 clematis I planted along the fence at the top.The cosmos kinda crowded them out.In the cintre of the berm but mostly hidden is malva.The same one you have GramT.And there is a couple of bachelor buttons that came up from a mixed seed pack I put in for the fun of it.

I sure would love for it to last 12 months.But then again it would make it harder to try new flowers.I have a whole new vision for next year. ( lol )
