    @Aunty Rach, do you have pyracantha behind your one too?

    Yes @Joyce21 - they are in full bloom and look pretty against the dark green behind it. It’s a lovely Acer ‘we’ have got -  such a lush lime green and the leaf shape is really pretty.

    I love the Hebe AuntyRach, is it a miniature bush? There are some lovely pictures on here, especially pleased to see an echium Torg.  Here are a few of mine taken today. Masquerade rose with yellow, pink and almost red flowers - hence the name.My Mum roseFond Memories roseGolden Oldie roseOur Ruby Wedding Anniversary rose didn't do so well this year, so no pictures to show of it.  There are very few flowers, so we may have to move it yet again in the autumn/winter time.

    I have three of the Hebes on the edge of my patio and the flowering is excellent this year. Think they are Hebe Topiaria?  they are low and mound-forming and now 60-80 cm across each. 
    Lovely roses @Guernsey Donkey2
