    Needs to knit together a bit more but it is its for its first season. Thanks all!

    The space at the front is for a low hedge  - planned to go it this autumn.  Ypou've also helped me choose that (another thread(.

    Looking good Snoodle image  Which achillea is that?

    It's Terracotta (from Crocus.co.uk)  If you look carefully you may also see some lilac wisps in front (re other thread...should be red...)

    Looks wonderful Supernoodle image

    You must be very proud of your effortsimage

    I like that achillea too and are those the shasta daisies I saw on another thread?

    Plan is to put a Standard Rose (got my eye on Grace - apricotty colour) behind the Bonica.

    Yes, Victoria Sponge (you always make me hungry image), they are the Shasta daisies.  Two of the three keeled over in the heat and Verdun and Nut helped me deal with them.  They were pot bound and hadn't established into the border soil.  Cut back now and hoping they'll recover. Not much sign of growth but still green so not dead yet!
