    My French garden which I've now left behind for a bit as I've come to OH's cottage in Norfolk. 20240617_165934.jpg 20240617_121659.jpg 20240616_143810.jpg 20240616_143856.jpg 20240616_143756.jpg

    The yellow roses got eaten by deer.
    Last one is Alstroemeria Indian Summer which has survived 2 winters, frost and waterlogging in clay soil.

      Here is the garden that I look after and have re-planted a lot of in south Norfolk, OH's cottage.
      20240621_090629.jpg 20240621_090554.jpg 20240621_090243.jpg 20240621_090926.jpg 20240619_165254.jpg 20240619_165218.jpg 20240619_165047.jpg 20240619_164812.jpg

      I have Alstroemeria Indian Summer here too, on sandy soil, survived 2 winters.

        Apologies, I can’t remember how to start a new question in a new place so I’m sorry to have hijacked a thread about things that are looking good. Can anybody please tell me if my little Catalpa has got verticilium wilt? It was fine five days ago and now it looks like this on all its branches.

        That looks like dehydration to me @Tidemark. They need a lot of water when the leaves are expanding and during dry spells.

          Mine looked like that last year @Tidemark. I've just been out and given it some water. :)

                  A couple from my garden this morning. Still getting to grips with posting photos on here, but getting there (I think !)

                    A few picture to provide a new view of the garden.

                    Summer is difficult to take pictures because we get only dabbled shade in the morning.
                    These were taken just now and I had to do some editing.

                    Have to support the lavender, it's falling over again.

                        Exceptional garden photos from everyone, but had to say to @AnniD.. I do love your greenhouse.

                        Just noticed that @Busy-Lizzie has a rather lovely summerhouse too. !
