              we know the weather was and still is a disgrace.... but fortunately some plants can cope fairly well

              my wild front garden
              daisies and malva.JPG
              late primulas, only bought in early spring, though
              primula poisonii (colour is not true in pic, its more a dark pink with slight purple tint
              primula poisonii.JPG
              primula bulleyana (don't know if they should be a bit earlier normally, but late due to young plants and weather..

                Lovely primulas... My primula japonica did all it did in June.
                Longk, that Lotus berthelotii took my breath away!

                Woo, you just know that for me Roses are second to none...


                Netty's Pride and Asiatic 'Black Out' Lily have intertwined in a majestic way...

                  Angelina - I'm not usually a fan of the showy Lilies, but Kentucky looks truly fantastic!

                    Self-seeded Hollyhock in my herbaceous border.

                    Despite (or because of) all the rain, my Lavender is rampant this year.
                    It's always a pleasure to sit on this bench, surrounded by the fragrant Lavender flowers and the sound of the bees happily buzzing in amongst them.

                    Here, I've combined the lavender with Clematis tangutica to cover a boring concrete garage wall.

                            My next door neighbour has 2 in her front garden which she bought in bud about 3 weeks ago. It is unfurling nicely and is peering out above the garden wall which is 4.5ft high. Our local nursery Great Park Farm,Battle sells it.
