What's Looking Good in April 2014

All delightful -especially the Linaria. What one is that please @merleworld ?
Jenny

 

Thanks Eve and Jenny



Jenny - they are Linaria Fairy Bouquet. Sowed them last September but you can sow them now for flowers this summer.

 

Merleworld....... I like the delicate yellow of Rhododendron 'Hotei'.

Woo.......Tulip and Geranium a perfect colour match!

 

Clematis Macropetala 'Wesselton'


Unknown dwarf Iris


Saxifrage


Solomon's Seal just starting to bud up.

 

Lovely pics been posted whilst I have been away for a week - well done everyone!

 

Not so much looking good as multiplying good. Last year had 2 large pots each with 3 gladiolis and 3 tigrida. Left to their own devices over winter there now are 19 gladis and 11 tigrida in one and 16 gladis and 9 tigrida in the other - hadn't realised I had the bulb maternity ward! A bit of moving on required I think....

 

Mine barely got going before the Sawfly larvae found them.

Asarum proboscideum in bloom




Dicentra (forgive the ladder please)..................


I seem to have a lot of white Bluebells this year......................


This is one of the Aquilega that will survive the cull..................


A little Corydalis flexuosa that I picked up a couple of weeks ago.....................


My Brugmansia sanguinea is covered with these......................


For @silu another shot of Iris japonica. All the plants of this that I have are outstanding this year.......................


And because I love it so much another photo of my Clianthus puniceus......................

 

It's called "Helmar" and many stock it Spruce

I know I've posted some pics of these plants previously, but always worth another pic cos they are so beautiful.

It's a bit colourful in my garden at the moment as you can see!

 

Wonderful display Merleworld. More than a BIT of colour - aren't they gorgeous?
Jenny

 

They are Jenny, but then I'm biased. Love this time of year, there's so much going on.

Sowed lots of summer flowering seeds in the front this year, so hopefully that'll be just as colourful in a couple of months.
