My allotment is at a pub( only one plot next to beer garden). I share veg with the restaurant in the pub and so pay no rent. I have had it now for one year and this year grew( and am still growing) sweet peas for table decorations.
For next years table decorations I was considering putting some daffodils in on a sloping bit on which I cant grow veg. I will grow the sweet peas again. Are there any other flowers I can grow with little effort and that do not take up too much room that I could give to the landlady for her tables.

A spectacular annual is Salpiglossis.  Very easy to grow and long lasting  

P.S.  It's my fave' .   Another similarly shaped flower is Godetia, very cheerful colours also easy to grow.

Cheers,    Tony.

Marigolds - Calendula - are dead easy from seed and flower for weeks, as do cornflowers, and they both make good vase flowers too

Cosmos is quite pretty too - a daisy type flower.

Also consider Pinks and Carnations- both flowers that seem the happier the more they have their flowers trimmed!
And have the bonus of being quite happy to just 'get on with it'!

Sweet Williams go a long way - last for ages and look fab.

I sucessfully grew Zennia from seed this year, a lot of flowers for a small price, the colours are bright and beautiful and a small carnation like flower, my only fault was I should of direct sowed, and sowed slightly later than I did, made harder work for myself because these cottage garden looking flowers care for themselves
