I thought it was time to make another appearance,seeing as BA ,and Sanbaz have come back too Lol..Hope all your gardens are looking good ,and enjoying this warm sunny weather..My back garden seems to be quite happy :o) .

This lovely White Shrub was gifted to me by Amy,a few years ago,and I can’t remember it’s name..again ! It’s been wonderful this year..

This is a cutting from my Pittosporum ‘Tom Thumb’ taken in 2011 !! it has finally reached a decent size at last..I almost gave up hope,but glad I didn’t get rid of it :o)


Osmanthus,which I love,another kind gift from Shirley,and Bowles Mauve Erysiums..I need to take more cuttings soon,as these are starting to look leggy


Last but not least,the lovely Heuchera’s gifted to me many years ago by Cinderella..they have been split many times,and now grace the length of this border…


Hope you have enjoyed the little tour..Happy Gardening to you all xxx

What a wonderful sight your garden is Bloomer! It is so well cared for and so colourful.
You are obviously in full control of your lovely patch - if only I was in control of mine!!!
Lovely to see you and your garden back on here.

Welcome back! How lovely to see your immaculate colourful garden again! :) White plant looks like a Sanguisorba perhaps?

Thank you Chris,it's much easier to keep control of such a small area..sometimes I wonder how I can find so much to do !

What a wonderful riot of colour and beautifully neat and tidy too. The Lavender is set off well by the Sanguisorba and the Heucheras are very pretty.

Hi Sandra, I did wonder what had happened to you, there aren't many of us oldies left on here now, but it's good to see you and your pretty garden again, the garden looks glorious, don't leave it so long next time.....(。♡‿♡。). (ʘᴗʘ✿)

Absobloominglutely lovely! Mine's gone mad, musk mallows almost 4ft high, all falling over lol. Ah well, one year I'll get it all right like you:)

Well they do say good stuff lies in little room - it looks perfect - really makes the most of the space and invites a wander round. Brilliant.

Thank you Angela,and for your lovely comment....I just felt like a break,like one does sometimes,but I still always look in most days,so I can keep a check on you all ! lol..X

Thank you Ba.it feels like old times again ,with you being back on Goy..:o) I am very pleased with my back garden this year,it seems to have achieved a more mature look now,but it's taken some time though ! I have some monster growth on some plants like yours too,but I like the contrast of heights...Can't do with perfect specimens :o)

Thank you Stera..and as my dear old dad used to say...you also get Poison in little bottles! I prefer your version :o)
Although it's only a small area,it's quite enough for me to look after,with still having a front garden and a long border to tend as well..as yet,it hasn't all become a chore,still very much a pleasure..

hello Sandra, lovely to see your garden again and what a riot of colour you have! The first photo showing your pots and trough is so pretty. Glad that the Osmanthus is still thriving for you! I haven't commented as much as usual due to being at the care home with Mum. Will PM you later ... :o)

20 Jul, 2019

 

Hello Shirley,and thank you.I'm pleased with my wall planters too..all those plants were from Aldi this year,also most of the others in pots too..Your Osmanthus has romped away this past couple of years..I love it :o) Actually,I owe you a PM,as I've been somewhat busy(and forgetful ! ),so I will definitely reply to your last one later..hang fire till then..ha ha X
