Early May tulips.

(JONATHAN HALES) When the tulips finish the trays of violas and pansies I'm nurturing around the corner will create the next wave of annual display with aquilegia. Must get tons of violas in. Never let the display stop.

Dont let it stop J. its beautiful.

Hi Jonathan ..
That's a stunning display. Wonderful choice of shapes and colours :o)

It looks so colourful Jonathan.

Just magical,Jonathan.so much to catch the eye..:o)

You've got the knack of putting colours and shapes together

Have you thought of going in the yellow book Gardening scheme. You pack so much in to your garden.

That's amazing! Never seen anything quite like it! Great!

Have a look here Jonah...just incase Scotsgran doesn't see your question...

What an absolutely gorgeous set of pictures...not only an amazing gardener - your design, arrangements and photography is incredible too!

Hi Jonathon. As Karen explained it is about opening your garden to allow others to see it. the National Garden scheme was set up to support District Nurses and over the years it took off. We have a few members Spritzhendry, Dottydaisy and Andrew R who open up for one or two days a year to let others see what they have been up to. Small gardens are also welcome to apply or sometimes streets of neighbours group together to open. Have a look at this link. I tried the one Karen gave but it did not give me a result. http://www.ngs.org.uk/gardens-to-visit.aspx
