What's looking good in May 2011 ....

pete,
you sure you weren't on holiday when you took that photo? Great photo, I'm jealous

Woo and simbad,
lovely photos as usual

I had better stroll around the garden with the camera but don't know if anything new has popped up.

 

Ruth,

 

Really good photos, simbad



We dot our garlic around the flower beds and it seems very happy at the moment





The Freemontedendron is coming into bloom and will continue all through the summer





This honeysuckle is loving the sunshine





A wonderful scent is coming from these old fashioned roses near our back door.





The weigelias are doing well -

pink - grown as a standard



red



and variegated





Tolmiea (piggyback plant)





Irises











Nigella is just starting to open. We have a number of large, self-seeded, patches of it. Oscar the cat loves sleeping in one of them




Clematis







A baby tulip has just appeared . It's only 4" high and we don't remember puttting it there





Forgotten the name of this for the moment




A general view of part of the new bed we made just over two years ago. The aquilegia in the front is a pure white one and has seeded well.





The red hobbit flowers are now opening. This is just one plant
