Hello!

We have lots of different sized pots to fill. Looking for suggestions for flowers, would be nice to have lots of colour for as many months as possible. We're in Scotland if it matters weather wise.

For me alstromeria is one that always seem good value with it long lasting flowering period. Don't forget some foliage in colours that set off your flowering plants, though, otherwise you might get the municipal parks planting effect!

Cosmos grows beautifully in pots and flowers for a long time if you dead head it. Tumbling nasturtium also looks spectacular, especially if you plant the more interesting colours.
