Just finished potting up plants in the greenhouse at 10.30pm. Only stopped because I couldn't see anymore! Anyway, some gorgeous pictures of your gardens guys. I have garden envy. Our back garden is coming along and I have set lots of perennials to grow on for next summer etc so my garden is evolving nicely. I have had more time to spend on it this year, so it's becoming a labour of love, a hobby I'm enjoying immensely. We are also living the good life with our allotment. Enjoying the soft fruits at the moment is so rewarding.
I will have to try and get some pictures of both on here soon.
Been away for a couple of days, so just had the privilege of catching up a fair few pages on here .......what wonderful, inspiring gardens - so full of flowers and colour. Well done to all of you - isn't this time of year just magic
Simple tiny things but I've gone all gooey over the little red mini petunias this year with probably too many of them in pots and baskets. Just love them though.
White osteospermum I love because in my garden they have been as tough as old boots. I have two little baskets tied to railings which have been there with the osteos in for 4 years through all weathers. I'm hoping the baskets will survive another couple of years until I can find the same ones again. Laziness not to take them indoors every year. But I love how the osteospermum come up like this from being outdoors all year. A quick chop in March down to a couple of inches and up they come again every time. Great low maintenance and cheery little things.

Victoria S - Nostalgia is a lovely rose. Mine is in its first year and still have lots of flowers to come too.
A different angle of my veg patch, this is my favourite bit of my garden at the moment.

My sweet peas look messy, but I quite like that look ..... Is that wrong
Gone all traditional at the back door bit.
