    Some of my hostas, grouped outside the back door where I can see them without having to hobble across  the garden

    Thanks Papa, old iPad is not to good at that?

    They are a beautiful foxglove they are only knee high but perfectly formed so they don't bend over in the wind.

    Beware Iamweedy, I don't think that Foxglove is hardy. I think it is a hybrid with Isoplexis and although sold as hardy, many people find they are not.

    Just noticed that my campanula Pritchard's Variety is putting on a good show this year.
    I've had it about 4 yrs now and I'm looking forward to doing some dividing next spring so I can have more around the garden

    I bought some of those big allium bulbs at the NEC . Heaven only knows quite where I will put  them. I got a bit carried away.

    They are lovely Iamweedy , the one to the right at its widest bit is about 17-18cm wide image . They are expensive but I am getting some more. The leaves are really broad so will need a bit of room.
