      Hi Beckie,

      Thanks :)

      Ours is just starting, we should have some flowers by the weekend. It's still my favourite :)

      I like your Ebb Tide as well, that would go nice with my Burgundy Ice :)

        Shhh :mute:! Here's my latest Rose! Royal William! I planted it yesterday, fortunately Kev hasn't noticed it yet :whistle:.
        I shall need to move the delphiniums because this is a small shrub variety :dbgrtmb: image.jpeg

          Is it dangerous, it looks like you've got it in a cage like a wild animal :roflol:

            Oh yes the Ebb Tide would look fantastic with your Burgundy Ice, I bought mine from Cants of Colchester (mail order) I can highly recommend them :dbgrtmb:

              @Anthony Rogers, on the arch I have Penny Lane, Festive Jewel, Lavinia & Iceberg (that's probably too many) I want it to be full of blooms & a real statement in the garden :dbgrtmb:

                I have to fence off new plants in the garden because the hens:chicken: love to scrap in freshly dug soil! I have lots of chicken wire fences around the new plants!!! This is how I get caught out by Kev when I buy new plants :roflol:

                  I don't think fours too many, presumably two either side.

                    Yes I've put two either side :dbgrtmb:.
                    They are already growing quite quickly, with the exception of the Iceberg, that has been very slow to get going, interestingly the one I have at the front was also very slow to begin with but now it's taken hold its doing really well :dbgrtmb:

                        The Geranium has gone berserk this year considering I chopped it in half last winter. It's now 4-5 ft across.
