There’s a lot of white in my front garden this summer.

There are self seeded Alyssums …

And self seeded Ox Eye Daisies from the hedgerows :)

After the daisies finish I shall move them because they are choking my Fuchsias.
I’ll put them around the back.

I always think white acts a a foil for more colourful flowers, makes them brighter somehow, and glow on a grey day

I love the daisies, Hywel, though I can understand your desire to move them when they've finished flowering. So pretty, aren't they? They and the alyssum look lovely under the window.

That looks spectacular! The daisies just brighten it up for now while the fuschias are waiting for the sun to actually shine for any length of time this year! It's a great splash of colour for your neighbours, all of whom must be well behaved - many people can't leave plants, pots, ornaments out, in reach of moronic vandals!

Glad to hear it Hywel ... have a good day. After lots of rain yesterday, we have a sunny day ahead, according to the forecasters!

Love white flowers, especially daisies. I even like the little ones that grow in our lawn.

Some good Welsh soil there!
