A TIME TO WEED, A TIME TO HACK

 The garden is out of control, well my control. The bottom hedge is fifteen feet high, the paths are overgrown and hedges sprouting. The grass is waist high and the wildflower meadow is desperately short of most of the flowers I sowed etc.

We are short of butterflies and bees, veg is being eaten by rabbits, mice, snails, slugs, pigeons but not us.

Everywhere is so lush, so prolific and with the warmth R has bought a white agapanthus to join the blue and put out the aeonium in the same bed.

She weeds and weeds especially the creeping jenny that has s-p-r-e-a-d.

Elsewhere we have two flowers on the big magnolia and other stuff - 

And for some reason it is a hydrangea year -

Elsewhere we have yellows, violas and roses, daisies and alchemilla.




Well, the latter is a greenish yellow but seems to love falling over the paving
The rue has been splendid and now we have the orange day lilies.

At this point I was going to upload more images but the blogger is not behaving so that is all for now, more soon.

  1. So much color. I wish we had some of that but the heat of the deep south USA has done away pretty much with it all.
