            Nice to see Buff Beauty is having a second flush of flowers and the unidentified climber (I'm sure one of you guys will know) is blooming. Better late than never:smile: IMG_2597.jpg IMG_2595.jpg

                        Hordeum Jubatum , Squirrel Grass a type of Barley. Grown from seed. Looks stunning in the wind , the seed head fronds are like silk and very pleasant to run your hands through. The youngest granddaughter loves it . Sorry about the washing and watering can in the background ! :wallbanging:
