Wonky - such a difference - can't believe you've done it all in just a few weeks! Good luck for today.
BL - your garden looks stunning - not over blown at all. It's a real touch of England in France. Particularly like the border in the first picture - it still looks so green and lush - amazing considering the temperatures you've had this past couple of weeks. You must spend hours watering!
Heaven is ... sitting in the garden with a G&T and a cat while watching the sun go down
These 3 are of the rose Veilchenbrau. This is it's first year being trained properly up the wall - can't wait for next year.
I have planted a clematis Etoile Violette to grow through it (only flowers once) but think I am going to dig it up and plant a clematis Perle d'Azur (much brighter)
Gorgeous pics everyone. Well done Wonky. Stunning rose Susan. I could just eat those Rb. I used to pinch then from my Grandad's allotment and it's a wonder any survived to go on a plate.
My peony Bowl of Beauty has started to flower and I just had to empty the rain out of the bowl to take a pic.

Wonky ((lots and lots of hugs))
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

Lovely pictures everyone here's a few taken today. Thought I would stick with the rose theme.
Think the above are called Silver Jubilee but not sure.
Claire Austin newly planted this year
No idea what this rose is called.
Lovely pics all

Thank you Topbird.
Gosh, France is ahead of Scotland. I missed most of my Bowl of Beauty because it flowered in early June, then we went to New York.
Lovely photos everyone.
Way ahead of Scotland Lizzie
. Your garden is looking beautiful.
Thanks Susan and Rb
. Unfortunately it doesn't have a perfume but makes up for it in looks
