I've hardley any flowers in the garden this year. The ones I do have...lupins and foxglove...have all taken a battering with the heavy rain and are bent double I bought a stack of plugs this year for the first time and have lost quite a few - the rest are struggling to survive. Greenhouse is empty too I admit to being a 'fair-weather' gardener so, as you can imagine, there's not too much gardening going on.

my day lillies have been in bud for 3 weeks now.. waiting for the sun.. think they will die in bud rate we are going..
@belfastbo i dug my foxgloves up other week as they were kissing the ground and had no flowers left on them at all..
the only things that have done well is the peas, carrots and swede plants.. they love all this rain..
Maybe they should change the olympic theme to something biblical - maybe Noah perhaps ?
@ Happymarion. Raised beds are the business, really productive.
