I missed one last week! Not sure how that happened, just busy. The heavy and sometimes cold weather hasn’t been kind on the gardens – a lot of stuff has been flattened resulting in frantic mornings with bamboo and twine. The weather brought out the slugs too and they seem to have ended my hopes of a good Dahlia year but never mind.
1. Astrantia – glorious white, like an explosion.
2 Rhododendron – no idea of the cultivar but I love the colour, a sort of light lime cream.
3. Bees – happy to see quite a few buzzing around the garden, especially on our little crop of foxgloves which they love.
4. Japanese painted lady ferns (Athyrium niponicum) – this garden has a beautiful clump in a nice shady spot, the colours are fantastic at this time of year.
5. Geranium (possibly x magnificum) – looking glorious just before the rain flattened them out!
6. Amaryllis – we’ve been waiting for this to flower for a client for years. He never gave up and finally we’ve been rewarded with this beautiful flower!

The Painted Fern looks magnificent! Very at home in it’s spot and growing well.
The Rhododendron has a lovely colour to it.

Beautiful amaryllis. I have a plain ordinary red one, but it’s happy in the garden and I’m grateful when it flowers. Love the nigella too. May have to try some of that!

Lovely Six. What a shame the Geranium was flattened, hope it has bounced back. The rain has done the same thing to my Verbascum. They don’t bounce!
