    Ours has spread far too much. We removed one patch to put hydrangea in, but it just keeps appearing.
    We removed a large bed of them in the winter, but it returned with a vengeance. We must try harder this winter. I won't leave it to my wife. I'll get the pickaxe out!!

        My favourite colour of tree lily. The coin is for size reference only, not what I paid for the bulb :heehee:

                      Flowers continue to show us how beautiful they are especially when we focus inwards. As always amazing photos of some fabulous plants. Many thanks for sharing.

                        I love the blue of the cornflower. Sadly, the wind and rain we’ve had lately has nigh on destroyed them.
