My front garden at the beginning of August.

Wonderful.

It's not easy when the weather is so cold and wet but you still have plenty of colour in a small area!

Looking really good Hywel a treat for passersby :o)

Its different from last year but looks a lot more settled.
I really like it. It's been a disappointing year for fuchsias but you have two there that are doing OK - are they Genii and Rose of Denmark? What's the white one? It all looks lovely.

They say small is beautiful,Hywel,so your garden fits the bill :o) I think the Begonias stand up to anything,and I love them too..I wouldn't want to be without them..They look good with your Fuchsias..

It looks really lovely Hywel and I can remember when you first did this border ! I bet everyone who walks by admires it !

You have certainly taught us all a lot Hywel. Putting plants close together eliminates weeds, and makes watering more beneficial to all the plants.

I think your front garden looks lovely, Hywel. I really like the close planting.

I can't quite believe how wonderful your little front garden looks! You certainly make the most of it. :))

Thank you all for reading about my garden.

Steragram the Fuchsias are
Left - Miss California
Centre - Lilac Princess (colour not come out very well)
Right Genii

Never come across Miss California - is she hardy? That's the one I thought was Rose of Denmark.

Miss California is not hardy Steragram. Thre's a photo in my latest Fuchsia blog. The flowers are big and very pretty.
I've got some nice rooted cuttings if you'd like one ...

It's really come on since your makeover, so colourful:-)

Looks good Hywel ... I would stop to have a look if I were passing by!

love the daisies, very pretty :-)))

Thank you for the tempting offer Hywel, but I am trying to stick with the hardy ones because of lack of space for overwintering. Stopped planning for a greenhouse when next door's blew away...
