Jubilee Weekend in one soggy garden..

Amen to that Lincs.....

Is the first rose ' alecs red' its too windy here for ht roses bt Ive that one and a couple more wit C montana growing through them

Your plants are looking really lovely despite the weathers nasty tricks.......more rain this afternoon I think.......:0(

a lovely blog, i especially like all your different roses, they are my favourite flower, and i think i spied some gorgeous red poppies, i have the purple ones, but i would much prefer yours!

Superb Lincslass - Ceanothus are great !!! Love your planting - and the lupins are top notch :)))) What is the plant 8th from bottom - kind of fluffy looking - nice !!

i think that plant Paul is called 'love in a mist', I could be wrong though, im usually wrong in naming plants!!!! if i am right then you grow it from seed and its dead easy, even you could do it, honest:-)))

all looks great , wonderful colourful plants :))))

SUnny in Scotland..all weekend! :) ALl looking fab Lincs..such a pretty garden :)))))))

As you say Lincs it seems to be another good year for the roses and you have some beauties. Love your white love in a mist - I only have the common blue one.
Just hope that if I get to be 86 I have the stamina that our Queen has.

Thats right I think Dawn Nigella, love in a mist, an annual that self seeds, mine are usually cambridge blue

Love all your beautiful plants especially your Roses,the White Nigella and those majestic Lupins;0)

Sorry ladies I`ve had most of my roses a long while and don`t know, didn`t keep a record in those days, I`ve looked many a time in all my books but there are so many that all look the same in the photo`s and I just can`t figure them out..
Snoop its the first time in donkeys years that I`ve had as good a crop of lettuce, I think it must be down to the fact that the area had been part of the bottom lawn for over 30yrs so the ground had rested, lol...As to the garden I think it now gets the time and care that first my own children and then my grandchidren used to need and now don`t, I`m afraid I have been known to forget to eat when out there, cannot see a man doing that, lol...
My Nigella started out blue but are always white now, I think to get some blue I have to buy a new packet and start again I just allow the seeds to fall anywhere in the dogs area..

Lovely blog and yes God bless the Queen. Isn't she great. Jx

lovely blog sue, i enjoyed all the jubille :o))

Beautiful flowers in your garden Sue, especially I liked the roses.
Did I recognise that white Aquilegia ?
Hasn't the weather been awful :o( Maybe summer will return in a while ...
Sorry I didn't seem to see this blog when you posted it. I must be more observant lol

Hello Hywel, yes I was thrilled to bits when taking the pics of my lovely white Aquilegia, I stood in the garden thanking you, daughter has already put in a request for the seedheads, lol...
The weather is really misbehaving and thats me being polite, my lawns are the longest they`ve been in years but each time I get the mower out the heavens open yet again, lol..

I just read on the news that Prince Philip has been allowed home so thats some good news, as to the weather its dry here bt still blowy.....

I haven't hears the news. I'm glad to know he's been discharged.
