    I am recovering from my broken heart caused by leaving our old garden behind by gathering plants we have never had before. So far we've got

    Achilles Perry's White, Phyteuma Scheuctizeri, Viburnum Opulus Roseum, Hydrangea Annabelle, Hydrangea Vanille Fraise and Hydrangea Little Lime.

    I've always admired Hydrangea in other people's gardens and I am planning on getting another couple. Any suggestions most welcome. :)

        I don't have any hydrangeas but that glam rock and vanille fraise are gorgeous! I quite like the blue/pink lacecap ones too, dont know any names though. Sorry you had to leave your garden @Everhopeful.. you'll get some nice new varieties now I'm sure :)

          @pamdish Glam Rock looks interesting, thanks for pointing it out.
          @Lynd, I took redundancy to get out of a very stressful job so we downsized to get out of the rat race. The hardest thing was leaving the garden behind, isn't it always eh :)
