        We think the summer is nearing the end but it is surprising what colour you have when you look around the garden.

        The planter complements the Campanula perfectly Jenny. Was that by accident or planned?

              This warm weather has definitely been extending the growing season.

              As our garden is quite exposed the flowers normally finish fairly early but they're managing to surprise us this year. :blue thumb:

              The pashion flower is normally getting quite droopy and it appeared to be getting there a couple of weeks ago but it has really perked up again. There are about 30 flowers on it now (and some fruit) and it's producing loads of buds.

              These poppies had stopped completely but are back again. I love them!
              P1180377.jpg

              This penstemon died back but has grown another stem.
              P1180361.jpg


              And others are still going.

                Nature would certainly win design awards if allowed to enter. :)

                  Actually, it was specifically chosen GA. I'm a bit of a colour match "freak"
