I noticed when looking from the house that the Medlar had a lovely orange top and a yellow bottom. So, I went over and inspected it. Very vigorous growth from the rootstock trying to outdo its competition. I suppose there will be a visit with secateurs soon.
Lovely pix Joyce. Nice to have a bit of sun on them too.
Your Clematis are further ahead than here Goldfinch. Lovely. Niobe won't be long in my garden - loads of fresh buds on it. Probably my favourite plants
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Very mild here in the North East this morning , much needed rain over the last couple of days pond topped up tadpoles growing well a few photos this morning
I love those Candelabras Perki - they blend so well, are those poppies too - what colour flower will they have? My soil doesn't seem to suit the Primula - what type do you have.
Lovely photos everyone, you certainly have a wide variety of beautiful flowers.
The primula is pulverulenta , I was going to move / chuck it somewhere but this year it lovely, it should get a bit taller yet. I have millers crimson and bullensya else where in the garden.
I am very pleased with the Anthriscus sylvestris ravenswing not grown it before. I will be saving seeds for many more plants next year .
Poppy Beauty of Livermere to left stunning when it flowering but the rain trashes it in no time, blue Siberian iris in front of primula and alliums here there and everywhere will be flowering next week I reckon , cant wait .
Perki "...shame the dicentra got frosted, it would of looked really nice with the camassia."
I'm surprised that your dicentra got frosted, seeing as the RHS hardiness scale puts it as "H6 - Hardy in all of UK and northern Europe (-20 to -15)".
Anyway, I think it's a very good idea to associate dicentra with camassia, so that the camassia spikes flower above the mass of dicentras. I will try it.

Gorgeous colour though.

@Zenjeff
Nice hellebores you've got there, I'm surprised that they are still in flower in May. What cultivar are they?
What plant is photo #3? By the way it would help discussions on this forum if members would kindly number their photos when posting more than one...
Thought it was about time I posted a few pics of my postage stamp sized garden, comments good or bad welcome,
Pat.
I love it Brickman!
