What is Looking Good in June 2021

Its a Geum Borsii quite a long flowering plant if deadheaded . The blue are forget me nots nothing to do with me its how they self seeded around , unfortunately they smothered a penstemon garnet and it looks like its had it . The Geum are planted with Salvia Caradonna that's the planting partnership I intended they probably being flowering in two week time give or take a few days

 

We have Swan River Daisies too, we planted some about 4years ago and still get the odd plant popping up .

 

Thanks Perki, I feared you'd say they were forget-me-nots (), such a great plant for wildlife but so nightmarishly invasive, took me 2 years to eradicate it from my garden and it still pops up now and again! The geum and salvia will be an excellent colour combination, I also have 'Caradonna', one of those salvias that are ubiquitous but for good reason! I wish my other nemorosa was doing as well, 'Blue Marvel' has already been devastated by slugs.

One or two things that "pinged" in the early morning sun this morning....



Jenny namaste

 

Aha. Yes, I had an aster there about 10 years ago and sadly it died. Perhaps mine is a small bit of it resurrected! Thank you Mrs. S!

 

Just came in from having lunch (Tuna Mayo Baguettes) on the front patio in the shade admiring the view. It is too hot on the Kitchen Patio and Lower Dining Patio.
