I have just built a new, large raised bed and have filled it with plants!?

Some of these plants I know will come back each year but there are one or two which I am unsure of!


So can anyone tell me if the following will come back please?


Nemesia (Wisely Vanilla), Phlox, Fuschia (Winston Churchill), Fuschia (Patio Princess), and Cineraria (Silver Dust)!


Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

hi there.


sounds like you've got a lovely riot of colour in your new raised bed!





as far as what is annual or bienniel or perenniel....





nemesia: annual (will not come back)





phlox: perenniel (will come back) keep deadheading and prune down to the ground in the late autumn





fuschia: annual (will not come back unless you overwinter it inside the garage or potting shed) prune back and water sparingly in winter





cineraria: half hardy annual... may come back if you're in a warm enough zone

Reply:The fushia definatly will....not too sure about the others.
Reply:It really depends on the climate zone that you live in.In mild climates some plants flourish and grow yr round.Takethat same plant and put it in a really hot climate and it will die off in the heat and have to be planted each winter
