What a Difference 6 Months Makes

...update, well the early bulbs have all long finished now but the whole corner is bursted at the seams and coming on a treat, everything is romping away...

I especially like the white foxglove at the back, the alliums and purple leaved lysimachia firecracker..

 

Developed into a lovely little corner Bilbo. All of the plants are comfortable in their space - no one specimen fighting for best position at the expense of another,

 

A few more weeks down the line and there have been subtle changes, the foxgloves are taller and are flowering really well, the Aquilegas have now finished but the Allium flowers have got huge; some are easily 10 inchs across

 

Cor, they look good

 

A really lovely, balanced corner now Bilbo. What is the bladed leaf in the bottom l/h corner.It's rather nice...

 

Hi Jenny, it just a clump of good old common orange flowered Crocosmia....

 

Well it continues to flourish, as some plants finish others take over; its a little bare on one side until some of the late summer perennials flower but on the whole I'm very happy with it considering its less than 12 months old...





This lovely variety of 'loostrife' is on the right side, you can't see it in the above photos (which are a little bright due to being in full sun when I thook the photos).

 

It has come together really well Bilbo!

 

Excellent looks like a picture out of one of my gardening books

 

Bilbo,
I am beginning to love Loosetrife. What a cracker and as tough as old boots I expect.
Bees' paradise,
Jenny

 

Beautiful gardens, so colorful.
