Good to see the yellow Beloperone is doing well for you @Victoria

Good luck for your Clematis @Sienna's Blossom ...

Nice Lupins @Logan, I love them and hope to have some myself next year

For some reason my garden seems devoid of Aquilegias this spring but I do have the following flowering now :-

Phlox subulata ...

Phlox divaricata ...

Weigela with dark leaves ...

Weigela with green leaves ...

Rhodoxis 'Summer Stars Peppermint' ...

Two Pelargoniums (Names not known) ...

Clematis 'Dr Rupel' scrambling everywhere ...

Solanum growing on a trellis ...

This is the size of a dinner plate! Completely over the top but fun while it lasts which is not long if it is windy or pours.

A few of the many Rhododendrons and Azaleas I have. The first 1 has a glorious scent as well, a real star.

Thanks Pete but I take no credit whatsoever as apart from giving them a really good growing medium when planted, that is it. Never pruned, fed or attended to except I do dead head when the plants are young, after that they thrive on neglect! I wish all plants were so undemanding.
