    Thanks Fairygirl. Yes mostly nettles but some campions and cow parsley.

    There are also crab apples wild pear and cherry. Tescos had bare root fruit trees at £5 each so 6 of them were added.

    Really impressive  image

    We can enjoy all these Wisterias vicariously Joyce - and no effort involved whatsoever...  image

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



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

    Chicky that's gorgous.  There's something romantic about wisteria I think, I love it.  I grew the smaller flowered American one in my last garden but it wasn't the same! image

    ONLY 15 yrs old GD2, I'd have been gutted!  In fact Hubby would probably say that I'd have foregone the window for it image

  • The rose around the lounge door is really in full flow now! I love it. Plus, I have robins nesting in the storm porch there!

    Only started gardening last July, so still early days for as good a show as most of yours, plus things all seem that bit later up north!!

    That is all fantastic Jason, and that is a Clematis to die for! 

    What is that little white plant in the bottom photo please.

    Gardening on the wild, windy west side of Dartmoor. 

  • Thanks Lyn, and its Saxifrage x Arendsii White Carpet

  • These were a surprise this year - think they are violas(?) had one in a pot last year and now I have a14" diameter ball or them. Should I dead head it to keep it in bloom or will it just die off? image

    Wonderful heucheras and what a great clematis Jason.

    Three very blustery days here with even a few minutes of snow. Today is cold and clear, a day so beautiful it makes everything look wonderful. image
