Here are the plants I bought with Ians money at the Gardening Scotland show. See ..... I really didn't buy that many for a change. Left to right: Clematis Montana Graniflora (white) Clematis Warszawska Nike (dark red) Clematis Montana Rubens 'Elizabeth' (pink) Clematis Tangutica (yellow) Behind them is the new plant Lychnis Flos - cuculi 'White Robin.' Here's a close up of the WR. This is my ragged robin which is in the marginals of my pond. The White Robin, in comparison, has to be planted in well drained soil. Here are a few piccies of some more of my garden plants. This is my Korean Lilac: My Nelly Mosa clematis just coming into flower now. Now these two I'm really chuffed about. They are my white and purple wisteria and they are growing!!! I think I can safely say that they are a success this year. The purple one: That's Ian in the background!! The white one: Lastly I decided to take a shot of a few of my tadpoles!!
Wow thats alot of tadpoles! Great pics! Is that a Japanese Red Maple next to your purple wisteria? HI IAN!
Remarkable . Really like those Korean Lilacs Eileen, so interesting looking. And the tads... what more can be said, instant childhood flashbacks! I love them! Your garden is really pretty Eils. And organic
Beautiful flowers on those - you're really going to enjoy them when they're all established and blooming together! *waves at Ian* What a fine fellow, working in the garden as any good man ought. :-D I love your stepping stones - and your tadpoles too!
Yes Denee that is a Japanese red acer - my pride and joy. I have another few acers dotted around the garden as I love them so much. Thanks for all the nice comments. If my wisterias flower this year you can bet that I'll be posting lots more piccies of them. :-D
I do love your yard and all your flowers .The Korean Lilac it just so beautiful .I hope you like the Wisteria as I think they are pretty but I am doing my best to kill the ones around here.If I could I would send you some of it .It has the most beautiful long clusters of lilac blooms you ever saw .When it blooms in all the trees again I will get pictures of them and even in the trees they have choked to death. I love the little Tadpoles too .
hi Eileen , your garden is looking good at the moment, very pretty. the tadpoles are about the same size as the ones in my own pond . My son (15) has about 20 in his bedroom in a flat water tray . Mrs Bugs is not very pleased. 8) Bugs
Hee! Well, I think anyone *at all* of any race, gender or planetary origin should be in a garden - so there! :-D
Oh Eileen!! Your flower garden is beautiful!! I hope one day mine will look half as good as yours does!! My boys would have soooo much fun with the tadpoles!! Hopefully one day my pond will be finished!! I'm sending a great big HELLO!!! To Ian!!
