Really like those purplely/maroon wallflowers everyone has (except me), Perki, your pots are great, the red and white mix is fab. I like your tulip field too Ante30, very smart. These photographs are a bit of a lie, taken last weekend but the hail yesterday has smashed up most of my daffs now ☹️ These are Blarney and Golden Echo. Alexis Beauty and Suave on the shady pondside, the others to the right I think are Lemon Beauty (??) and Turncoat. Need a nice clump of white daffs for that awkward space at 2 o'clock, already on my shopping list😀
Sad to see the daffs go but roll on the next lot of plants, whoop whoop!
Thanks @Liriodendron regarding fig I will have achieved when it doesn't happen by accident! simple camera but so long since I've used it I've forgotten how. I hate throwing away broken pots so I try to use them for shallow rooted plants
Jacquimacmahon. Do you know the name of those creamy white and red tulips ? I’m sure I have them but can’t recall the name. For some reason they really attract green fly in the cups. Have you noticed that ? I went to school with a family of MacMahon’s in Birmingham.
Lovely, lovely pictures and such vibrant colours.
I love the look of your thatched house Jellyfire. It looks as though it has a face the way the thatch is over the windows and door.
Sorry no idea what the tulips were. It was a mixed bag of red shades.... of all places from lidle. They have been amazing, tall strong and where the reds ans shaded ones came up first I’m now getting a succession of others with more of a pink shading... cheep purchase but I won’t hesitate to buy bags like this again. Can’t say I’ve had any problems with green fly on the tulips... they prefer my climbing rose bush!

I planten almost 200 tulip bulbs last autumn and I think that is really paid off now. Today morning at my cottage garden..
