Lychnis growing very tall must be all that water it has been stood in.

Me too, I wonder if there is any way to keep them a little shorter though. I was wondering whether or not to give them the Chelsea chop to see if I could get them to stay shorter but think this year with all that rain we had it might have been a waste of effort. They are browning off somewhat after being stood in water for 24 hours this is the area which was flooded on the 9th of June but apart from that it has recovered reasonably well. Thank goodness. Plants are amazing they seem to be so resiliant and whatever the weather throws at them they just perform. Thats nature I suppose. :O)

Your latest photos are lovely - the garden looks beautiful. We had a lovely day here today, and the forecast for this week is very encouraging, so I hope to be spending plenty of time in the garden. I might even do some gardening ;-)

I am on my Ipad, and your last 11 photos are sideways on. Rotate the tablet and the pic rotates too. Think I'll have to lie on my side to appreciate your lovely photos.

Thanks Wildrose, and for a change this is more or less the right colour, strange how sometimes the camera does not capture the real colours. :O)
