          Part of my neighbours 85ft long Hebe hedge, now 4 years old and approximately 4ft high. I grew it from cuttings to replace a very tall and destructive Leylandii hedge.

              Thank you Jenny. :) The big bed in my back garden is still looking very bland, I don't think the annuals are going to perform this year. :doh:

                It was a carp Spring Sheal. It's a wonder anything could be bothered at all,

                  You're right there Jenny and our early summer up here hasn't been very kind either. Although the rain is come and go I'm hoping the extra warmth will give everything a boost. :)
