What a beautiful abundance of blooms @zigs
My Plumbago is growing well after having been transplanted a month or two ago. It is still a baby though...could grow to 1.8 m (6 ft.) if the ants don't eat it. I do notice some circular leaf chewing going on so i'll get some DE strategically located today.

That's odd, the forum software usually re-sizes it automatically. Could you try re-sizing it before you upload?

I've made some changes to the resizing tool, as it looks like it would reject very high megapixel images. Could you try uploading the same file again please and see if that helps now?

Some of the Heucheras are coming into new leaf
and a few of the Daffs are still blooming
A rainbow started to form the other day but it only rained for three minutes. That's the only rain we've had for almost a month! Today it's 75 degrees and getting too hot to be working in the sun.

@Bootsy sometimes the "like" button is just not enough. All the photos are wonderful, but the last one with your house and the willow and larger yellowish tree and the rainbow and threatening sky in the background is so beautifully atmospheric. Better be careful, Miss Marple may come rapping on your door asking all kinds of uncomfortable questions.
@Esther Knapicius...glad you were able to load the photos, very enjoyable. Thank you @Ian !

@Beverly Thanks very much for your kind words.
The building you can see is our summerhouse in our garden. I took the photo from the kitchen window. One minute later the sky had changed and the sun was out - not unusual for England.
The larger, yellowish tree is a silver birch. The willow was reduced by 25ft last year
It's OK Miss Marple is a friend of ours.
