Hydrangeas in the rain

Hydrangeas in the rain

I love the raspberry red of these two hydrangeas that are enjoying the wet weather. I put their labels in a safe place and of course, can't find them!

I like your raised bed Janey. Turned out to be very cheerful.
Hydrangeas were such a good choice .
Our weather on the Island is very hot at this time.

Thank you Klahanie, what I'd give for some of your sun and blue skies!

Thanks Karen, it's hiding quite a bit of unsightly concrete! I'm pleased with the shade loving plants too..

Thanks Shirley, I'm really pleased with the heucheras against the hydrangeas.
All the heucheras were splits from others in the garden..

Stay vigilant for vine weevils on the Heucheras Janey. I’ve given up on them. They are to weevils as Hostas are to Slugs!

I ghink if I started again I would have all slightly raised beds. in the few that I have the plant growth is far superior. Yours is a picture, Janey.

Thank you girls, I am really pleased how it looks this summer..:))
Ange, yes I agree, in my raised bed is lovely top soil. I'm not sure about the ph of the garden soil, but it could do with a load of top soil adding to it. Won't be while I'm here tho!
