Photos of the garden, at last.

Now we have ploughed throught the holiday photographs Luke has uploaded our photos of the garden too. Hope you enjoy them.

First off, the clashing corner which seems to have become quite harmonious. I've moved the twisted verbascum into the corner and repositioned the giant scabiosa. Hopefully next yeat these two giants will provide a great backdrop.








I couldn't be bothered to string up the hammock so had a snooze on the wooden base instead.
Now onto the long border which is more orange and purple at the top end and changes to pink and mauve at the other end.



 This little hen never misses a trick to grab a free meal, I've had to chicken wire up the delphiniums after she discovered they tasted delicious!



Even in it's last days this plant proved lovely to look at.

The colour of this delphium, with it's petrol blue petals is almost neon in daylight. You can see a flash of orange from the geum just behind.

 As we move further down the border I've toned down the orange and am bringing in pinkier tones to complement the roses.
