The bench with the huge pot of geraniums is my favourite, with the African marigolds and fern close runners up. They all look extremely healthy, I never seem to keep pots looking good for long!

You need to feed them every 6 weeks Honey during the growing season , with Ericaceous feed for those plants that need it.
e.g. Hydrangea, Acer, Pieris, Azalea, Lonicera,
Crassofolia, Blueberries, Raspberries,Berberis,Magnolia,
Heathers, Skimmia. (thats my list)
The rest can be fed with general purpose plant food.
Its no good watering pots from the hosepipe, washing
out all the goodness in the compost.
It needs replacing.
Still time to do it once before the
Autumn when all plants need to rest for the winter.

A great collection - what are the ones next to last? Nice little goldfinch in the marigolds. I like that shot of the honeysuckle berries too.

Wow, what a colourful garden you have now, Mark. My garden is now in an intermezzo and I am waiting for the second wave of bloom of all my autumnals and roses.
May I ask you, what is that flower on the second picture? Lovely!
