Lots of green in the garden,..plants that are just coming into flower plus the herbs and salads. First is the Purple Fennel,Foeniculum vulgare 'purpureum',..i have at least six,..growing at a very fast rate and will reach up to 5 ft,..smells like Aniseed. ( photo / image / picture from Philip Nulty's Garden ) ( photo / image / picture from Philip Nulty's Garden ) Verbascium,..the volunteers all seven to date.

Yep... lots of green for sure! I love that archway. The gate is very interesting. What is that hanging on it? Nice photos... again!
Oh that's a wild goats head!,..the skull and horns,..there is a bigger one hanging out there someplace,..they did a cull of the wild goats on the islands,..i took home two skulls and horns,..but long after the gray crows had eaten the flesh.
I LOVE THE SKULL!!! I have a cow skull in my garden. It was a cow that was part of the family herd. I think the putting natural things in the garden add alot to the garden.
Beautiful garden. I would love to find a few Verbascium popping up in my garden. My fennel has never gotten that large, it gets too hot before they have a chance...my butterflies would go crazy laying eggs on one that size.
Of course there is lots of green......we know you have lots of green paint. You can't fool us! Nice flowers Philip......you only have green.....right? Jerry
Philip, I thought the same as Jerry before I even clicked on you post. MORE green paint But I was fooled.
Carolyn and Jerry you are unBearable, .
