      I've been waiting for weeks for these Crystal Tree Lilies to open and although they're still not fully open they're beginning to look really good now and the scent is amazing already :dbgrtmb:

          Lovely photos everyone.

          Yes, I did start a new August thread and then yet again lost of telephone/internet line last Friday which just came back last evening. The thread now seems to have completely disappeared! :scratch: I think this is what I posted ...

                Well, a quick look around the borders in the twilight tonight produced these plants giving me colour.

                    Hi Simbad, I believe the Geranium is the pink form of Versicolour. It is a really pretty perennial and quickly spreads into a nice clump. I like the way it is almost luminescent in the twilight.:snork:

                    The rose is "Trumpeter", Joolz, which my wife and I saw first at Hidcote and had to have!! Once established it gives sprays of flowers all through the Summer repeating the flowering again and again. I love the strong coloured roses and for me "Trumpeter" is amongst the best.:snork:
