    Your post wasn't there when I started Joyce, it took so long to resize and upload the photos.

    Is your top pic a rhododendron? It's really unusual, I haven't seen one like that before. Your camassia look fab too, my blues are nearly over...

    Victoria ... long story short, dodgy knee gave way in the garden , fell flat on my face in the Hesperis, spraining knee and ankle and breaking fifth metatarsal ... image duh!

    Vic - definitely not possible to overdo the alliums.  image

    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

    Joyce love that rhoedie.

    vic the alliums are super and it is impossible to have too many and you can always squeeze a few more in?

    I agree, no such thing as too many alliums ......the ones on here are superb.

    Love your camassia Joyce, and the irises are gorgeous too.  James and Vic your colour combinations are wondeful.  And love Doves clematis and the stately foxglovesimage

    Sometimes the accidental bits are the best ?

    To prove my point about too many alliums

    I feel the same about acers

    .....and peonies ?

    Chicky,   a suberb collection of acers.   Agree about not having too many alliums.
