Whilst we have battled with constant rain, there has still been some success in the garden.
I love the Agapanthus. So enormous I can't work out how it manages to stay upright.
Japanese anemone always heralds Autumn to me so it's a bittersweet time when the first bud opens but they are lovely.
Helenium - I used to shy away from orange or red in my garden but as I get older my tastes have changed and I now embrace the cheery, warm shades.
What a range of colours.
My lovely Crown Princess Margarita shining in the sun.
Geoff Hamilton rose is abundant despite suffering from rain and wind for so long.
My furry plant. As this opens up more it takes on a fuzzy appearance. Makes me smile every time I see it, like a little joke in the border.
I think it's fair to say I've been seduced by Verbascums this season. Sadly I was too mean to buy many full price but hopefully next year I will get a good show from the half price and almost fully flowered ones I purchased late in the season.
The reality of our weather. This old bucket shows four day's downpour in it.

Now the roses take another battering.., but they will be back. I just know it.
