              Haven't been very active lately due to a friends illness - just caught up with everyones pics, there are some real beauties - well done everyone.

              Here's a few that I am really enjoying in the garden

                I've got 2 varieties of Arisaema. I saw no signs of life from either of them until the 2nd week of June, and in 10 days time this one grew to 3" high and is looking good now.

                This one self seeded itself nicely, now I have a little forest of them. The flower is small and unimposing, unlike the one above, however, later on it produces glorious red berries.

                      Hi Penny Jane, it's a climbing rose called "Bright Future", it's a repeat flowering rose and it's scent is really sweet and strong. I bought it bare root two years ago from Style Roses and it's settling in nicely along with "Madame Alfred Carriere" and "White Cloud" which I bought at the same time and all are facing East by the Wildlife pond.:coffee::biggrin:

                            It's lovely I love orange roses but don't actually have any and don't really have anywhere suitable to grow a climber.

                            Unless I could get someone to build me a 'structure' for it to grow up :snork:
