Yet another collage

Do I note a colour theme? Design or accident, Kate? Earlier on I found I had a garden full of purple, but not by deliberate design. I didn't think it was a favourite shade of mine before...

I think you do, Ange! I noticed lots of pink choices this year, usually I’m drawn to purple and mauves. Maybe we are drawn subconsciously to certain colours each year?
The rose has a cluster of blooms, quite small, which need deadheading. It started of several years ago as a deep reddish pink, it’s now an orangey red! Very bizarre.

Soil and weather, no doubt.
