    An in-camera HDR shot from my trusty Pentax this morning. Through the lounge window -

    Davids and Joybell, can I move into your gardens with my camera for a week!? So many lovely things!! Willdb, being a bit sunstrokes I spent some time trying to figure out which plant is the Pentax, lol. Brain not quite connected! image

    Some pics from my garden today:

    Loving the photos everyone.  Food for thought there Sanjy, I have a couple of wrought iron gates that I have been looking for a use for.  Hubby wont have them put back on the wall since I knocked it over reversing into the gate  Oops!

    Here are a couple of pics taken today.

     Allium Shubertii planted three but only one survived hubby's size 10's when he was sorting out some fencing.

     Campanula adorning the front wall, it gets better and better each year.

    I'm not going to make the obvious comment! image 

    After rotating my screen, they look great, especially the alliums!

    A few days ago I moved a rotten old bench from a shady border to a new position on top of a low wall a couple of feet away (the idea being to hide the compost heap).

     This created a new planting opportunity, and this afternoon (when I should have been working) I planted some Geranium nodosum, Alchemilla, Euphorbia, and variegated lily of the valley... and moved some of my harts tongue fern around.

     The Geranium nodosum is the white form, called 'Silverwood'. The plants were a bit small though and not in flower. An unnamed G. nodosum seedling bought from the same place is a lot bigger and flowering though:

     rb-what do you take your pics with and what do you download from?

    love your pic WilDB!!

    Katherine W that white foxglove picture is lovely!!! looks amazing, like a Monet painting come to life!

    Yviestevie that Campanula is fantastic!! is it literally growing out of the wall or?

    1Runnybeak1 find the pictures on your computer hardrive, sometimes they are upside down, right click on the picture and you can "rotate clockwise/anticlockwise" to correct the orientation - i often have to do it with pics taken from my iphone!!
