      Hi Victoria,..in my garden they last about six weeks when at their best,..then they go to seed and need to be cut back but will still bloom from the side shoots up to eight weeks,..yep then its cut back to the ground,..lots of work there,..cuttings can be taken from the new shoots then,..if the weather is kind to them the cut backs will grow and bloom again,..i prevent them from doing this.

          Lovely photo of Foxy Molly :doggieshmooze: .... oh and the Delphiniums and Lupins too :biggrin:
          Yes my garden has no more room for plants so any new ones have to go in pots. The weeds still find room to grow !

                          Hi Victoria,..good guess :),..both the yellow and the Orange remind me of a miniature Angels Trumpet,..Brugs.

                          Just tonight i replied to a comment in YouTube on a video music background,..for the Garden Blooms back in July 2015,..having viewed it and listened to the music,..methinks i will have to change the appearance of my garden,..there wasn't much of a change between back then and now for July.

                          The Garden in July 2015.

                          Music,..Pachelbels Canon In D Major,..'Elegance Version',..9 Mins long.

                                Those are two lovely Hydrangeas, the containers must be very big.

                                Why do you say you want to change the appearance of your garden, it's lovely the way it is. It doesn't matter that it's the same as in 2015. It makes me wonder what new look you're thinking of giving it when it doesn't need one. I hope you're not going to spoil it :smile:
