These are more pictures I downloaded before clearing the camera card. Various shots of the garden in June.
Just look at that6 vewrdant AND colourful garden of beauty! You have had some really good success there. You also have a number of pots and garden thinggys that just add to the overall effect quite well.
Looks great Toni. Your Mallow is amazing. What is that planted in your wheelbarrow? And what is that red bloom in the center picture? Crocosmia?
Those mallows are like that every year. I cut them all back in June when they started dying back and most of them have started leafing and blooming again. The red blooms in the second picture are the Freedom Hedge Roses. I do have some Crocosmia - Emily McKenzie in that tub to the left of the roses. The wheelbarrow, which is actually one of three out there, is planted with Carnations and Scabiosa along with a purple Verbena and a couple of plants that I forget the name of since I planted them a couple of years ago and suddenly this year they came back
Very cheerful Toni! My malva Sylvestri did not weather the storm. That growth that I had posted a while back was trimmed back and it just has never recovered. It is still jsut a bunch of greenish leaves, no blooms as all. I'll have to trya gain next year. It is one of my favorites.
Wow! That Freedom Rose sure catches your eye I would love to stroll thru and look at all your garden thingys Your garden has lots of character. I'm trying to work on that and quit planting things in a row Deanna :-D
Thanks all for the nice comments about my garden. I love the way it looks in June.....July and August I am not too happy with, but there might be some reblooming going on in the fall when the weather cools and maybe we get some rain.
Toni would have to frisk me before i went in there for snippin shears for cuttings and my lil seed packets for seed ...LOL
great garden Toni. I always like seeing your windmill. Have you posted how you utilize your greenhouse or have I missed that one? Thanks for sharing.
Your garden looks great Toni! I agree it has lots of character and it would be wonderful just to stroll through and look
I would love to stroll through your garden and admire all your pretty plants and try to talk you out of some of your garden junk!
It would be great to have any GS member stroll thru and look at my garden......but touch my garden junque? Nah, I don't think so
You are truly the mistress of garden junque. I love your garden - It has character, it is alive and beautiful. 8)
