            Having just got back from a fishing holiday and faced with all the "after holiday" jobs I got my priorities right and went for a walk around the garden to see what was what:snork:

                Looks rather like Penstemon barbatus. A bit of a gem, but slightly on the tender side.

                      Couple of Lilies I am growing in my Red Border for the first time. I've been pleased with the quality of the plants - bulbs were from W H Hyde.

                      going to move that one this Autumn - honest! - I'm sure I said that last Summer too :(

                            Kristen, Lily 'Blackburn' is a stunning colour, :dbgrtmb: unfortunately I can't see the other two.

                            Armandii, that/those Clematis are beautiful. :dbgrtmb:

                              Try REFRESH the page? I've found that quite often GC doesn't "provide" images first time around. Using REFRESH all the existing ones that you have already seen will be cached on your computer, so it will only "ask" for ones not-yet-acquired, so you should get them all bit-by-bit. If not let me know and I'll host them somewhere else.

                              Here's a LINK to that message :)
