5.52am and I have already just done an hour of watering using metered water. It was cold and I am glad that I used a hose as I want to make sure I give the plants a good send off. Even that, part of the garden has not been watered properly.
This is not mine, but masses of delphiniums grown for confetti making! So beautiful!

This has been a strange year as most of my dahlias have not shown up any leaves at all. The SS have had a field day and all I have seen are short tender stems with no further growth. Very sad.
Was watching John Massey's Ashwood Garden again. So beautiful! I kept asking myself,"Why don't I move to a far flung place and buy 2 or 3 acres of land? Would have been perfect if flanked one side by a lake or canal! Why are you struggling with 3 bed semi?"
The nasty Fox seemed to have gone for my lawn or it could be hedgehog..

Snow in the Summer are very happy

One of the flower shows featured Dianthus - this one has the most incredible fragrance. I am searching for an Octopus as mine has all died.

One of the jasmines which I will never get rid of, but it would be potted. I am sick and tired of ivy from next door or my own climbers breaking my fence or growing through them. From next door.
