I love that combination. I have Bill mackenzie growing through Philadelphus coronarius aureus, but the phildalphus is in flower now and the clematis flowers over it later on in the year.
Hi everyone, just seen this thread and had to join in..
My sea of perennial wallflower, covered in bees at the moment.
I inherited this Penstemon from the last owner and each year it never fails to impress. I love the fact that it's so easy to look after, apart from cutting it back in the spring I just let it do it's thing.
Is that salvia patens "Cambridge Blue" fidget? Love that one and have a couple which have survived in the border for 5 years which surprised me. The darker ones disappeared after a couple.
This stand of delphiniums is looking pretty good and only half are fully out so far:
And had a nice surprise when I found almost exactly the same shades on this clematis grown from a cutting that I planted in a shady corner and forgot about:
A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

I love this thread; will just dash out into the garden with the camera
Back again
Clematis orange peel entwined with mock orange, it takes my breath away every time I see it

My beloved long awaited anenome wild swan

Love that cornus fidget. Lupins are doing well this year not a greenfly on them - actually I just whispered that in case they hear
This is Clematis Duchess of Edinburgh - amazed by what it looks like, only seen it as single flower before
