Plants...some new some old...


Anthea gave me a tour last week of our soon to be new garden. It was a bit rainy so hence the lack of photos but managed to get the apple blossom from the tree in the front garden, next to the peach (!) tree and some cool and groovy pinecones (thought of Auntie I!)

So...quick rundown...mostly so Mum can get her gardening plans ready for July's visit!

Front garden: Peach & apple tree, Japanese quince, rose bushes (lots) include semi-wild rugosa, honeysuckle, clematis and Virginia creeper, small rodendrons.
Back garden: irises (lots), flowering plum, more roses, ox-eye daises (yay!), small herb garden, raspberry canes, redcurrents, grape vine (with proper grapes!) strawberries, mock orange, wigelia, lilac, delphinums, aquilegia, mahonia, more roses, more clematis...
Oh and they don't have slugs here!!!
