  I'm not a Penstemon lover either. Just don't like the look of them and not had in my garden.
  My neighbours got a few in their garden and he seems to moan about them all the time

  No Marigolds,Pansies and other very small bedding plants in my garden, Alyssum etc.
  No Begonias, they look "artificial" to me.  (Most of which is quite irrational on my part. )

  No offence meant.

  I'm wonder what there is to moan about. Did they become sparse and floppy? I cut then back in march and it makes a nice thick Bush that has been flowering for over 3 months now. 
  Its the white ones, needed deadheading when this picture was taken. Each to their own though.

  I don't understand Penstemon Apple Blossom. It looks like it has too many E numbers. I took lots of cuttings but I don't think I like it now.
  
  The Peony is coming out. It didn't flower this year, but it must be 50 years old. Goodbye to an old friend.
  
  Lysimachia is coming out if I can get it out. I hate the yellow colour and it spreads too much.
