Gardening diaries - friendly discussions on topics from latest bloom to wildlife.

@Perki What beautiful flowers you have got. Allium globemasters are very compact and round and I can see them in your photos, nicely set against the Sambucus Nigra. Aren't they lovely? I'm going to collect my seeds and get rid of my Christophii.

I think @Logan would love to have your candelabra primulas.. I must place an order with you!
You must be very busy staking.. Look at the tall and beautiful delphinium.. I'd would to have your garden, @Perki

 

Good morning to all - Terrible news. I reckon we will have no peace as other nations push for caliphate all over the world and there are always revenge.

Education of the mind and morality is the only way forward. Why are other countries allowed to build religious buildings in this country? Not to mention that most of Mayfair and beyond have already been bought up by foreign countries ..

 

For @zenj Lovely sweatpeas


Prolific Madame Julie Correvon

Some gorgeous clematises which you can appreciate more if you were here


Some lilies

 

@Logan Another look at your roses.. really beautiful ..

 

Hi everybody , hope all are well and ready to face the week.

Sadly yet another week starting on a tragically sad note......what a world we live in

It's becoming Mournful Monday

 

@Verdun yes a white man. There were 3 people in the van, 2 got away. The driver was pinned down by some of the people that was around. The driver said that he wanted to kill Muslims.

 

@alp thanks.

 

Crazy world logan...

 

@alp ,

I don't think statements such as " Why are other Countries allowed to build religious buildings in this country ? " are the way to go.

Even the UK as " Church of England " have built cathedrals and churches in virtually every country in the World, and certainly every major city.

Why shouldn't these people have a place of worship available to them just as we have if we go to another country ?

Also, you mention that "most of Mayfair and beyond " has been bought by foreign nationals, well, isn't that the same as British nationals buying in France, Spain, Italy, Portugal etc

 

I see where you're going and I agree with your point of view as well as mine. Nothing is inclusive or exclusive. It's high time we disbanded all religions. How can you say pork is dirty or cow is sacred.. ?

 

People have been coming here since the Victorian times. It's nothing new and i understand that and don't mind anyone coming here. In this day and age we should all respect every one.

 

Great photos alp sweet peas are lovely

 

Hello Logan, I totally agree with you and would expand even further. How many of us can say that we are truly " English ", in that we are descended from Angles. I bet most of us are more Danish/Norse/French/German than most would care to admit.

 

Some of my alstroemerias being very happy in this heat

 

Scary times indeed, constant worry.....my hubs is a Muslim, although thankfully ( sadly..may I add! ) to look at him no one would guess. That is until he speaks or has to give his name!. Our 'boys' although they have been brought up religion ' free', I am getting more worried for them, again their skin and hair colouring wouldn't rouse suspicion, their surname would .....even I have had ' looks' on giving my surname!!

What a sad and intolerant world we are now living in
