This was supposed to be Emily McKenzie, but its too red, think I have correctly identified it after trolling the internet for hours lol :O) its very beautiful or should I say was, the rain today will have washed it away.

Lots of rain here too, so it's halted work on the garden re-vamp, still chance for a much needed rest. Love the bright colour of this one, despite the rain.

thank you both, it has stopped raining now. Sunshine forecast for tomorrow at some time and more in the week ahead. :O)
My Heuchera frame collapsed in the rain and smashed three of my lovely pots, so I have had to go and rescue them and have popped them into the front garden border, very wet but they look ok. very muddy job clearing everything away.

All done and sorted and cleared away, watching tennis - Andy Murray on next, go Andy Go!!

Oh dear, hope the weather's fit enough to get out tomorrow and sort things out. Hope they're not damaged.

there were three broken pots but the plants were fine Waddy. All sorted out and tidied up before supper. Will use the broken pots for drainage in my other big pots :O)

it is so vibrant, and a shorter variety so would be ok in the front of a border, it really lights up the garden as do all crocosmia at this time of the year. Love them all. :O)

Gorgeous...no rain here, but we are promised over night. I've been watering again. Thank goodness we don't have water meters!
