Another photo with a wonderful display of color. The fence section or trellis is GREAT. Mike C

Glad you like it - I've changed this bed since this photo, to give more winter interest. I hope it still looks good in the summer, though!

I expect it will, good luck with it all.

Thanks. One or two problems already - two dead plants and one very poorly! The frost has a lot to answer for. :-((

Yes, indeed it has. Hope there is better weather to come :)

I'm looking through a Nursery catalogue at the moment for HARDY replacements! I get so sad when I lose plants. :-(((

Me too. I lose more because i'm learning, so don't always know how to care for them properly because they aren't in the right environment. Doing Alan Tichmarsh's ( My Idol lol) How to be a Gardener online course. I've learned about soil types, & now know that the soil's PH is acid, & the soil is clay. Happy Planting :-)

Thank you, Rosepetal. :-)) You're not that far away - come and see it for real when the garden's open next year!

Another lovely part of your garden. I love the way you put your colours & textures together.

Thanks, Dwyllis. I'm so pleased you're ambling around my garden. :-))
