WHAT'S LOOKING GOOD IN MAY 2018

After a very late start things are beginning to pick up in our garden now.

Some the Heucheras have decided they like the warm weather and have stopped playing dead.










Poppies are just opening out nicely






some of the variegated London Pride are starting to flower

 

Tulips are now brightening things up

















We have lots of bluebells but not many pinkbells


or whitebells

 

The pink tree peony is breaking into flower (I think the yellow one will be open by tomorrow)




The exochordas are still going strong (but I don't think they will survive until Open Day)


We cut the Euphorbia mellifera virtually down to the ground in the Autumn but it's very vigorous


And it's starting to flower - smells of honey and exudes an edible syrup


Acer Katsura was pink a couple of weeks ago

 

London Pride (Saxifraga × urbium)

 

Bergenia:


Violas:

 

What a difference a day makes!

In my post No. 35 the pink tree peony was only just opening. This is what it looks like now. There are another 14 buds to open yet.




The yellow tree peony is now opening





Viburnum plicata is just coming into blossom


Some succulents


This is just to annoy @longk Sorry!

Rehmannia




@pete did yours survive?
