Whats Looking Good December 2024

That is brilliant @On the Levels. Do you grow yours against a wall? That is how mine is growing. Agree, beautiful flowers both in bud and when opened. It is often buzzing with bees. Also. various birds love the fluffy plant material for their nests. I will have to speak to it about flowering for longer!

 

My lonicera is also in full flower and wafting a delicious scent as I go past. It is planted next to a gate across steps which lead down into my garden. I love it. Insignificant flowers but Wow, the scent packs a punch on grey days. I love it. I have planted one in each garden I have had.
The flowers on the awful gaudy azalea are just fully open, it has really sickly pink edged white flowers but is forgiven, for the splash of colour it makes during boring winter weather.

 

@ClematisDbee we planted ours alongside a huge bamboo pole. This did rot away 2 years ago so a new arch was made using old wood. The clematis though is reluctant to use the frame and just clambers over other plants.
