    Welcome Jasper. I live just a short way from Harlow Carr in Harrogate. I was interested to see the curator Mathew Wilson on television say that Harlow Carr was a late garden as it was on clay, which is slow to warm up. I had come to exactly the same conclusion about my own garden, which can still be full of colour in September and October. You may find yours is the same. If so you might as well go with the flow, rather than try to fight it.
