Some of our plants in containers.

We been away, so we take the hanging baskets down to make it easier for friends to water them. The first three photos are some of them that haven't yet been hung back up.






You may notice that the chains are supported by cut down canes, so that we don't need to go searching for them when we need to hang them again.

We, also, put hanging baskets in pots (much easier to remove/change them).

We have three large, blue glazed, pots about 3ft high and this is one of them. The basket is just dropped into the top of the pot.



Some ordinary clay pots have baskets sitting on top of them



And this trough, planted with no basket, has just come on well so shall be put in the sales area.

 

Campanula grow wild throughout the garden. There are large clumps everywhere. Some are a lovely deep blue but they don't look like that when photographed as I don't have filters for my camera.









Lychnis also pops up all over the garden. Some in individual clumps of colour


and some in mixed colours.

 

Yellows are doing well

Alliums


Phlomis fruitcosa


Phlomis Russellian samia
We have large clumps of this all over the garden


The flowers are just coming to full bloom and will be covered in bees in a few days


Cytisus battandieri (pineapple tree) is now flowering much better. We have about two dozen blooms on it.



Verbascum Thapsus (the common wild mullein) is just starting to flower and the flowering stem will reach a height of about 9ft
