What's the star in your garden right now

VerdunVerdun Posts: 23,348

Right now I guess the star plant in my garden is agastache Blue Boa.  It changes though week by week..... Next week it may be another agastache Sangria.  So what's putting the smile on your face today in your garden?

    This is the star - I thought I had lost it last year with bad lily beetle attack but here it is. At the moment it is the jewell in my jewell bed. It grows about 4 ft high and where ever you are in the garden it stands out.

    It is Lily 'Night Flyer'

    The turk's head lilies are lovely Matty. not seen one that colour.

    Clematis 'Etoile Violette' - flowering its little socks off. Pic doesn't really do it justice as the colour is a bit too blue -something to do with my camera. I love 'Rouge Cardinal' too Netherfield - will be getting that!

     but my Ligularia 'Britt-Marie Crawford' is starting to flower so next week it will probably be my fave.  image

    You're right though Stacey!

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
