HURRAH! REVAMPED BED AT LAST:-)


HURRAH! REVAMPED BED AT LAST:-) (lopho)

This is the first bed I see from the kitchen door, it's looked awful all winter and today is the first chance I've had to revamp it. This shows three newly planted plants ...Helleborus Tutu, Pieris Pink Delight and Lophomyrtus Magic Dragon. I'm so pleased with the way they've managed to suvive all the awful weather has thrown at them:-)

Great planting BA I have never heard of Lophomyrtus is it the lovely Pink shrub in the foreground? and what is the white flowers on the right?

Yes Carole, if you look on my pics, about 5 back, you'll see it closer. It's lovely. The white flowers further down the path are anemone blanda, still in pot as I can't think of the best place to put them. They disappear in summer so I'm afraid of digging them up accidentally. Best under deciduous tree apparently, but I don't have any trees:-)

Another plant I going to get this year is the anemone Blanda;0)
