What's looking good in May

That is exactly what I was faced with when I moved in

Show off! Does it set seed?

 

I have built myself a 'bottom heater' bench in the greenhouse and would love to give some a try if you have any seed to spare please Shiney

 

Particularly love the gladiolus Nigel, and have always hankered after growing the Ferrula after seeing it wild on Crete. Stunning thanks!

 

Careful you don't get piles

 

Thanks shiney, I'll put that on my 'to do' list And start saving up for the postage to France

 

Another iris rescued from the undergrowth. Unfortunately only faintly scented, but a wonderful smouldering colour

 

Thanks!

I don't struggle with Fabaceae seeds. Warmth rather than bottom heat is enough after a soak.

 

Ornithogalum nutans...............

 

Ferns are coming on nicely, I do love the new fronds coming through on "The King", its a must have for any Fern lover.





Cant recall the name of this one, its a recent purchase, love the colours on the new growth.

 

Here are a few things looking good, despite the wind!!

The eye bed, my herb garden is starting to look lush (dogs being force-fed scent on the wind)

I love these, and don't know what I've done to deserve their appearance each year, apart from being reluctant to weed anything that might be beneficial.

This Acer is certainly "taken" despite the windy spot!

Must have a pocket of decent soil somewhere there...

...and finally, our freshly moved bug hotel

 

Everything looking top knotch Sian,
especially the pooches....and I love those little violas too,
Jenny
