Lavenders

I love the scent of Lavenders : )

I Like the smell of lavenders too Blodyn, just not mad on the plant itself, unlike my husband

They are looking great, the colors blend so well together. They even bring out the blues and pink in your patio pavers !

Thanks Flcrazy. It's amazing how many different varieties of lavender there are. My husband would just fill the garden with them and penstemons if I'd let him (which I don't !) There's too many gorgeous flowers in the world to restrict yourself, don't you agree :-)

One of my favorite scents for the house! These look beautiful!

I most certainly agree Joannie, I couldn't garden with a restricted flower selection. I'm a plant collector, ( type of person landscapers despise,because I don't follow any of their rules ex.,like planting in drifts or planting in groups of three or five, etc...),and as you can see by looking at my garden I rarely have more than one of any cultivar of flower. Like with the coneflowers, looks like I have several, but each one is a different cultivar, some only have subtle differences, so they look the same, especially at a distance. It's become an obsession..lol. I'm hopeless !

I tend to put a plant here and a plant there in scattered form and I don't care about the colours either I just buy the plants I like and I'm hopeless at the latin names. I do love lavenders though.

I'm only a very amateur gardener. I visit garden centres and car boots regularly looking for plants that take my fancy but they don't always suit where I put the in the garden and I therefore do lose some along the way :-( I think by doing it this way throughout the year, my garden will always have something in it that I really like. I've got a growing 'wish list' though since discovering GOY :-)

I guess husbands can be right too, sometimes.. :P

LOL, yes, just now and again :-)
