Ah! as I said earlier KEF, Eileen (my wife) should get the credit for the plants. She is very good on plant names, knows what colours she likes, how big the plants are likely to grow, and where she wants to place them. She has been poring over the 2 RHS Encyclopaedias she keeps by her chair tring to identify the Mauve flower in Bev's roadside verge pics. Nearest she can find is it is a very similar flower to an everlasting wallflower we have behind our apple tree but the leaves are quite different so it's not that. She also has a fairly comprhensive wild flowers book with coloured pictures that she's had from 1962 (published in 1956) but it isn't in that either so now we are puzzling over it. My first thought when I saw it was Impatiens but the main stem looks too tall and not the right leaf shape (I think). John H
The Shady Bank I keep on about - I'm quite pleased with it given that it was only planted last summer , and the Shady Corner under the biggest ash tree, and part of the new veg patch - all in the wrong order but you're clever enough to work out which is which aren't you? At least I've posted some photos
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Bev: What a beautiful use you have made of limited space. It's full of form, colours and imagination.
John H: re the flower you are trying to identify - if you are talking about the large pinkish flower in Bevs 8th photo of her house front, isn't a clematis?
John I thought it looked wallflowery too. I posted about your pic Bev but I can't have pressed submit ..
Senior moment. I said that it's often much harder to plant a small space successfully than a bigger one and if only everyone put as much effort as you into their front gardens wouldn't our streets be lovelier places!
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

Bev can't remember it's name, it isn't Sundance it's one that remains smaller and better suited to a pot. I lost my Sundance to frost a few years ago.
Excellent work Bev, a very colourful frontage to your home. John H

Lovely Dove!

Typo in last post, Sorry. Last question should have read 'Isn't it a clematis?'
Beautiful pictures everyone! What a fantastic garden you have Bev, can only echo the other comments...
