Colourful pots

 My pots and tubs are really colourful this year.

Olympic gold

 Matt and I collected some seeds from the Olympic Park when we went to the Paralympics. This is a selection of the flowers. I will let them self seed so we can continue the "Olympic legacy"

Sunshine in the shade

My Telekia Speciosa seedling has now reached fruition. I have one of these in my semi-shade and full shade beds and both have flowered and should continue flowering until the first frosts. At last, something to punctuate the green in my late season shady areas.

Yellow Shell

I found this beautiful Yellow Shell on my Bergenias this morning.

Washing Up

Being at my kitchen sink is a happy occasion at the moment because my Yucca and 'Skip' Palm (rescued from a skip) are both in full flower along with my annual show of poppies.
