    Do you have a hooky stick so that you can get at them? An essential piece of kit!

    My fence is not that high and I have ladders! ;)
    A 'weed' is just a plant in the wrong place - subjective! ;)

    Try a hooky stick, safer and satisfying😉

    Sorry, yes! It worked out well for when the kids were young and had toys all over it etc...

    So much to look at since I last visited this thread! Thanks so much for sharing. I've nothing new to add right now, but - love your garden photos punkdoc. And that Patty's Plum poppy from a few pages back - wow!

    So many great pics posted here recently! Too many to acknowledge them all, but here are some of my favs.
    @Picidae I very much like the general views of your "cottage garden".
    @punkdoc Ditto for the general view of your garden. I suggest you try to put a "blank line" to separate your photos, for the sake of clarity. Your garden looks absolutely luscious. ;)
    @Fairygirl I love the seedheads on your little 'Lemon Beauty' clematis! I've got the same on my clematis 'Early Sensation'.
    @Jason-3 The first pic of your garden in your post looks quite nice.
    @pitter-patter I've never seen tanacetums of that red, quite impressive! Ditto for the Delosperma flowers."Whispers at dusk" well-spotted!

    These past 2 days it was much too hot and sunny in the garden. Went for walks instead of gardening. But this afternoon some nice clouds came along and I could take these pics. The paeonia and poppy have been in the garden for a number of years, but the geranium is a novelty. I've been looking for getting a pale pink geranium for some time, and that 'Dreamland' is perfect. It's actually a paler pink when in the sun.
    Geranium Dreamland 'Breamdream'
    Papaver orientale 'Princess Victoria Louise'
    Paeonia lactiflora 'Catharina Fontijn'

    Thanks all for the lovely comments, they mean even more now that I am finding gardening more of a challenge.
    @Papi Jo, thanks for the advice, I think you are right.
