For those who would like to know, OH has just pointed out I didn't put names to the plants in pic.1: behind the tree is Bistort Superbum, front of pic, Osteospermum, to left of pic under tree is Polygonatum (Solomon's Seal).
Beautiful Clematis, John! And a lovely healthy looking Hosta in pic 2.
The Hosta had just about outgrown its pot last season so a couple of months ago OH decided to split it and put part of it under the apple tree: it does seem to like it there.
Lovely garden and photos (which enlarge beautifully), lots of flowers out. Only looks about 1 week behind Dordorgne. Normally 3 weeks behind. Shows what awful weather we've had here.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

I probably should have divided some of our Hostas when GW advised, but I'd forgotten some of them were there and frankly thought everything had died in the awful winter.

I liked all Little-anns pics but especially the one with watering cans
Lovely & sunny here in Bristol this morning, I've been out with the camera to take a couple more pics to share:
1st is part of the South facing border under the apple tree
2nd, looking from t'other side of the apple tree (various colours Aquilegia, Allium, Iris, Hosta & others).
3rd, A Weigela
