Re: In the garden today

Ooo lovely photos! My garden is a complete mess, still trying to change it from chippings and weed filled lawn to something "different". Still, only moved here last year, lost loads of plants I brought with me due to the snow and last summer's heat.
I'll post a few photos later of a work in progress with a lot of help from daughter.
There has been a fantastic sale at Cheddar Garden Centre which I may have attended
Lots of plants for £1 or £2, shrubs and perrenials...

Re: In the garden today

Very pretty LD I think it is a good idea to use pots to accentuate plants and to move colour around the garden .

This is a cheap hydrangea they were selling off at B&Q some months ago..




Last year when I went on holiday I returned to find a lot of plants had died in the heat , this year I have more things in pots and was able to move them into the shade into a trough of wet gravel and they all survived

Hi Mags, no they are some unpronounceable name, not grown from seeds. the Cosmos seeds didn't work but I did plant a few plug plants which came up ok, smaller than I imagined though.

they looked lovely until about a week ago when Mups threw a box full of slugs over my fence.

Re: In the garden today

Some excellent gardeners on the OFF great pictures

My Lillies are starting to bloom over the last 2 days well worth waiting for. Such a pity they don't last that long.

Re: In the garden today

Gorgeous flower pictures.
It’s nice sharing enjoyment in the same hobby.
It’s fun seeing how creative members are in their gardening. Some of my lilies are coming out also
