Lovely Strongy,I've never seen a Perilla Magilla before,very Coleus like,and I didn't know there was a yellow Bougainvillea either,really nice

 

Did a quick walk around the garden to see whats going on.

My salvia hot lips are producing tons of flowers





My beauty berry profusion is looking very pretty





My honey suckles on my trellises are growing well





And the one on the dahlia trellis is trying to flower for some reason

 

Acer palmatum


A second Acer palmatum

 

Wow, that second one is a lovely deep crimson Nigel,

@Jenny namaste
The colour is very good this year and the leaves have stayed on well despite the recent gales. Both of them are from seedlings I bought cheaply at Westonbirt.

 

@Dips - all looking good One thought occurred to me though: will your "trellis" be able to take the weight of the honeysuckle once it takes off?

@NigelJ - fab specimens of acer! I'm looking at growing those at some point in the future and if I can be half as successful as you, I'll be a happy gardener

 

@M yeh they are fine the polypropylene twine is 2mm thick and is really strong and they are attached with galvanised staples so are solid in to the fence



That one has been on for two years now.

I will be making more panels for the two trellises before so that it can spread out along them side ways as well. Just need to do it.

 

That is good

 

I really love them. Yours looks fantastic.

 

Campanula still flowering.


Coronilla Glauca starting to flower


Grevillea Cambera Gem is covered in buds, some with a hint of colour.


A recently acquired clump of Alstroemeria Indian Summer still has some spectacular flowers.




Centaurea Gymnocarpa with it's silver foliage.

 

How could I forget Penstemon Flamingo, it still has a few flowers left when the others have finished.

 

Love the alstroemetia especially, I would love a couple of those next year.

 

Spent some time between the showers taking the tender plants indoors, while doing that I took a few photos
Fuchsia swingtime still flowering outdoors


F. Paniculata now indoors with its third flush of flowers


A climbing rose


and a bushy one


Ricinus is still standing high and mighty


Callicarpa's berries are still staying put. I'm glad that the birds don't eat them, giving me plenty of time to enjoy their colour.


Schizostylis are doing really well this year. I've got 3 bunches of them all flowering like this in the back garden which cheer things up quite a lot.

 

A lovely and interesting group HsuH. Still all looking garden worthy....
