Two Pathways filling in.






Not sure about the name of this Geranium,..it was sent by a friend from England last year,..possibly Geranium 'Roxanne',..or Geranium 'Sweet Heidi'

 

Hi Philip, everything is looking lush! Wow, that Zantedeschia is huge ... maybe I have a miniature one.

Noticed you were not around but pleased you are thriving. I myself have not been about much this week as we have been very busy. Have friends coming for a late lunch (arriving at 1pm) today. It is going to be 30c+ like yesterday so hopefully there will be a breeze.

Take care and have a peaceful weekend.

 

@Victoria ,

Hi Victoria,..i hope your lunch goes down well and there is a breeze to cool down,..we are having a storm her for 48 hours so far,..my Delphiniums and Lupins are getting a thrashing,..bent over though none broken thankfully.

That Zantedeschia is the biggest one i have and its almost 2 Metres high =6 Ft and still growing,..its right next to my greenhouse so perhaps its thriving on the close heat,..my others are 1 Metre high at the most though looking promising,..yours may shoot up with more water.

Ah yes i had to take a break ,..i was told i was still overdoing things and i suppose i was,..the medication is supposed to slow my system down and i was pushing beyond that level,..lesson learned .

Aquilegia,..shades of pink with different markings.









Aquilegia.









Progress on the Bearded Iris,..there will be five blooms on this.

Hosta 'Nigrescens elatior'.

Rose ( Rosa ' Casino ' ),..climbing rose with fruity scent,..just bloomed.

 

Hi @glengarry23 , everything's looking gorgeous but I love your Rose " Casino "

 

@KFF ,

Thank you,..i have 'Casino' at the back door,..its scent wafts into the house though its not a strong scent like my Rose ( Rosa 'Korresia' ) its scent covers the entire garden so this year i have two of its cuttings which are mature enough to produce blooms,..i could get high on the scent then.

 

All No I D's,..in bloom today.

 

Hi @glengarry23 , you should put your photos on the " What's looking good in May " thread, they're beautiful and more people will see them there. Plus ( for me anyway ) they serve as a record where you can look back over a specific time period.

 

Hi @KFF ,..thanks for the nice comments on the pictures,..i see your point about being able to look back to a specific period in time,..its something i used to do in another Garden Forum then let it go by the wayside,..i started posting a Video for specific Months and in between when something bloomed in abundance,..i am sure i came across the Thread you mentioned ''What's looking good in May'' and so forth but couldn't find it today,..when i do i will post something

Philip

 

I have the parent bush for the rose below but it is in an awkward place to try and move it so i took a cutting which is in bloom today.

Rose ( Rosa 'Fragrant Cloud' )









In the image above two yellow roses are in bloom,..they are both from cuttings of Rose ( Rosa 'Korresia' ) but two bushes alongside each other and both in Containers.

Rose ( Rosa 'Korresia' )



Campanula portenschlagiana.



Oxalis debilis 'Wood Sorrel',..also Erysimum cheri 'Bowles mauve'.



Progress of the Bearded Iris.



I moved all of my established Lupins last Summer plus i took Cuttings,..including some small plants that were self seeded,..i am hoping to have some new coloured blooms due to cross pollination,..some starters are promising to look different,..early days yet.
