    That's a really interesting way of growing a Flower Carpet rose, Papi Jo.  I like it.  And your penstemons are gorgeous!  Hope the visitors were appreciative.

    At last! It's let me post some photos. I clicked carriage return twice between each one but the spacings are uneven. All are under 2MB but they look quite big.

    Nice pics, BL. Yours looks like quite a large garden... and a lot of maintenance work. But the result is well-worth the effort (says he who just looks and admires). Your visitors must find your garden "très anglais". Bravo!

    Your photos are about 2.5MB in weight and 2 048px × 1 536px in size, which is reasonable. What really matters re display speed on the visitors' computers/tablets/smartphones is the weight, not the size in pixels. You can get the same pixel size for a reduced weight (in MB) but with a lower resolution.

    Lovely pictures everyone, some beautiful gardens and plants. Your garden looked as though it was at its finest for the opening @Papi Jo. We had our village open gardens this weekend. It was a bit frustrating as its all so late here this year that everything that is usually out in early June is still about a week or so away from flowering, and the hailstorm that hit us earlier in the year had a big impact on lots of things that would usually be bulking up my borders, the delphiniums, lupins etc are pretty much non-existent. The wildlfowers saved the day though, plenty of colour in there.
    Still had a nice weekend though, we had plenty of visitors depsite the weather being very overcast and windy.
