Just got back from a few days away. My roses have gone mouldy so just spent 3 hours up a ladder cutting all the dead ones off. I will apply my compost and feed with sequestered tomorrow. Too tired now, is it worth going away?
It's a Sambuca (elder) black lace. An excellent shrub, can be pruned to the size you want it. Behind it is very rare 4ft tall geranium, pratense album.

You have a beautiful garden Jenny.
Congratulations on such a successful open day and well done for raising so much money.
Can I be cheeky and ask, what is the name of the dark purple leaved plant in the centre of your second to last photo? The colour stunning.

Thank you Jenny. It's definitely one for my shopping list (after a bit of research first).
