In the garden - June

Well, that was June then. Not a lot happened in the garden, well let me rephrase that. I didn't do much in the garden. Lots did happen in the garden. Flowers came and went. Rain came and, well continued. Everything is looking lush, including the weeds I was meant to weed, but didn't.

A couple of nice surprises included two nice bushy geraniums that Lucy's Mum gave us. There was also a discovery that our lavender plants have self seeded into our gravel. This meant that I was able to transplant 12 plants into pots for them to grow on, after which they'll be replanted elsewhere in the garden. We also have some ground cover plants, such as Ice flower and Ajuga, which have started to throw out some roots from the stems, which have also provided a few new plants.

So, time for the photos!

New plants! The wonder of plant biology.


We have some really nice specimens of Sisyrinchium bellum 'Rocky Point' and Cottage Pink - Raspberry Sundae.

The plants to look forward to in the next month are the Lavatera and our Honeysuckle 'Copper Beauty'.

    1. Thanks for your comment Scotkat - hopefully all the rain this year mixed with intermittent sun will help provide for a mega bounty next year :)
