              Lovely blooms Philip. Wish I had some rain, even a small shower would be grateful.

                        All looks great. I love general views as it gives me the real feel and perspective of the garden.

                            Your garden is full @glengarry23 ! but must be an interesting place to wander around.
                            I love the Handel rose. Mine has disappeared :frown:

                              Thank you Philip. I so like seeing where things are positioned and how they blend with other shrubs/flowers. I had a Buddleia in the early years. My Sis was visiting, had gone out early one morning, came in and told me it was lying on the ground! It was, fallen at the base ... I think it was Honey Fungus.

                                Hi Michael,..full is right though possibly too full,..if i leave something like a ball of string or a trowel down,..its hard to find it again,..though it is interesting to wander around,..always something new to discover.

                                Sorry you lost your Rosa Handel,..mine demands lots of water and feeding,..reminds me of my dog :)
