Your garden sounds lovely. I've tended to go down the evergreen route, but that means my shrubs are not overly exciting in summer! I've recently...
Your pond looks like such a haven for wildlife, @luciusmaximus. Lots of cover and easy access for creatures. It won't be long until they are...
@Sian in Belgium, your pond looks terrific where you have sited it. It looks as if it has been there for years, and I can imagine how fascinating...
Hi @gail 1. Don't know, looks a bit like viburnum, but flowers should be more clustered. 2. Ragwort 3. Thistle 4. Thistle 5. No idea, but very...
Great advice, thank you @Verdun. The spot you suggested them for is ideal then - partly shade, plenty of moisture and every year a fresh dose of...
It will look lovely when it is settled in the garden. I love astilbe. @Verdun, you suggested astilbe in a part shady bed under my apple tree, so I...
Yep, I've got one too. I asked on here last year just after I joined as there was one locally, and it was so beautiful I wanted one too. The one...

Hi @Sienna's Blossom, I sowed some v.b. this spring in the greenhouse. After hardening them off I planted them in the border last week, and they...
Hope you all have a wonderful day. Hope you have your best day yet, Mr and Mrs Shiney. What an inspiring couple you are!
Crocus, love the bright splashes of colour.What gift would you like for your birthday?

I'm not likely to ever take on an allotment, but if I were to then I would go for the full size, thus allowing for greenhouse, shed, paths,...
