Thank you for all the positive comments, it's really more about clever photography and the name of the first plant is Pontentilla Miss Willmott. It's more orange than pink to me, but my OH swears its pinky not orange.
Anyways, its going nuts this year en-mass planting two areas of five that started as one plant back in the day. The bees love it.
That Echinecea, david, is stunning. I never knew they grew orangy coloured and just like Victoria Sponge, they don't grow so well on my thin soil. Also adore Victoria's Peony, now thats a show stopper
THis is my balcony garden...i grow all sorts up here...curly kale...toms.....lavender...dahlia...geraniums...summer bedding plants....love sitting amongst the plants early mor ing with a cuppa...we also have a wildish back garden....love it there too...

I have wild meadow envy now Steve.
Wow and wow! David, your garden looks like something from a National Trust garden with half a dozen gardeners caring for it. Spectacular.
Quietly pleased with the delicateness of this astilbe. And roses never fails to be pleasing in June.
Hello all. Thank you for your lovely comments on my latest project and flowers from the garden.
David S - Acanthus are lovely. Glad your is flowering - worth the wait
.
Victoria S
MrsGarden - thankyou - lovely to be back
Lesley K - lovely Lupins and Foxgloves.
Caral - that Pumpkin is going to be a corker! Love Astilbes - lovely colour too
Wintersong, perhaps LesleyK's peony you were referring to?
Although I don't mind taking the credit
David Spikes, I think Monet should have painted your garden!!
Agree with Busy Bee2!
ANd yes Victoria Sponge, I was very tired last night and made that error, it is indeed, LesleyK's gorgeous Peony.
