I love those flowers. That's beautiful, rich color and detail. Very pretty!
 
Glad you like them! Would'nt believe that these are a very poisonous plant.

All The Best.

Do you grow them yourself? I believe these are Strawberry Crush, a variety I've been trying to grow for 2 years. All I get are a few paltry blooms. They are also difficult to photograph but you've done a fine job!
 
Hi Barbara.,

They are indeed the variety you mention. No, I don't grow these myself. These actually are growing in the wild. They seem to abound near the coastline in large quantities, and just about anywhere in the U.K. and Channel Islands.
I certainly hope you have more success in the future regards to getting more blooms. They are certainly available to buy from seed from garden centres etc.

All The Best for now.

Regards.

Alan.
