THIS MONTH'S LOOK ROUND THE GARDEN

I did not realise near a month's past since our last post, so here are some photos I took in the garden today.


This beautiful David Austin Rose The Lark Ascending has been flowering for months.


Such a gorgeous colour of apricot to yellow.

A great mix of colurs in this front garden flowerbed.


Brugmansia Double Pink


The trumpet flower on the right is just going over while the one on the left comes into it's own, showing the deep pink.


This Poppy that self seeded in the gravel of the front garden now showing just the seed heads.


I love these poppy seed heads just as decorative as the flowers.

a gorgeous purple Buddlega


Hydrangea

Crocosmia & Variegated hardy fuchsia


Variegated Cornus on the left & hardy fuchsia centre/right

Some pots of Fuchsias by the front door.


Round the back garden.


Poor Joan's not looking good! Since we did not really use the correct base , the moss as not taken, so she'll be having a wash and finding a place to stand.


These Anemones are looking great with lots of flowers.


David Austin rose Shakespeare


Pineapple Lily


Echinops


The round stone circle.


In the raised Tropical garden.


The water Nymph

Tree fern


The Tropical area.


The Shade garden


This Akebia Quinata climber is going great, so much so we will need to cut it back.


 On this side is a Honeysuckle, rose and a Jasmine all intertwined.


The alpine beds

  2. So many colours and shapes of flowers there are!
    I love Japanese anemone flowers and it blooms in autumn in our area.
    The pink flowers are stunning.

  4. Your garden really is amazing! I love to garden, but we do more veg growing than flowers etc. We have to plant flowers every years as nothing seems to come back the following year. Could it be the soil ( light, fine and sandy here being close to the sea ) The wrong plants? I use plant feed and Miracle Gro :)
