    @LG_ yes that's Centaurea Jordy, a nice big plant but goes a bit manky after flowering and tends to collapse outward. It will flower again if cut back but bees seem to prefer the first flowering.

    A wider view of my small garden. Most of it is visible in the photo. I’m dreaming of a large cottage garden with hidden corners and meandering paths.

    @pitter-patter You've certainly made the most of your small garden!
    Yes, "hidden corners and meandering paths" can look great in a large cottage garden. However, for my medium-size cottage (?) garden (300 m²) I have taken the opposite route: straight lines, no meandering paths and no hidden corners.

    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    Still looking out for London Pride. I'll probably have to wait for it to be fashionable again
    In London. Keen but lazy.

    ,Great dispalys everyone, love that path @Picidae, your poppies with the red lupin @pitter-patter and a cracking display of Irises @Pete.8, some of them can be a bit too showy for me but love those white ones. @BobTheGardener and @Victoria Sponge your gardens looks beautiful, right up my street, so much going on. 

    thank you @B3, @edhelka, @Papi Jo and @Fire, too kind
    @Guernsey Donkey2 the water is just the pond I put in last year, which is quite long and narrow so look more like a stream really

    Love and pride goes into that garden, pitter-patter.

    I love the self sown foxgloves popping up all over the garden this year. Nature and luck chooses the colour and the position, and never gets it wrong

    This is supposed to be Haut les voiles, a butter yellow and lavender combination but plainly it was mislabelled. Any thoughts what it might be? It does not exactly fit in with the colour scheme but I still love it

    Our first flowering Petunia of the year.  More to come. There are some great pictures on here, and Ideally I would like one of each please.  I particularly like the free flowering foxgloves Picidae.

    Seriously, @b3, you can have a few rosettes from mine.

    I love the colour of Jordy, @Victoria Sponge.

    @pitter-patter you really have made the most of your space.  I like the distinct sections.
