Been trying to do this blog for a few days now..fingers crossed it works!

Early the toher morning when we had sun! it was magical

Step leading up to front garden, so nice early in the morning

Hydrangea I moved from the back garden, still no signs of any flowers :(

Front wall

Lupins and French Marigolds in wild flower part..sowed thousands of seeds and this is all that came up after 3years..oh well

Snapdragon in back garden has done really well, been flowering since April

Irises from Sue still not quite out yet..cant wait to see them! Please can we have more sun

Forgotten the name of this Clematis I bought last year..only one flower so far…grr things are getting ruined by all this rain

Love’s Knot rose over the secret door has loads of blooms but are all rain-spoiled! This little bud is so pretty

Sarah and Suki..my girls

Handel growing over the secret door lots of blooms and doesnt seem to get ruined by rain at all..its a good one! :)

Hollyhock I think? I sowed lots of seeds this year and they got a bit muxed up..lost labels etc so I wasnt sure what this was lol

Acer in front garden growing huge! lol

Down at the bottom of the garden to the shed

And finally..after taking a pic of the step earlier Suki decided to go and sit there in the sun but just as I clicked she did this!!!!!!!! haha

Coo, I wish my snapdragons looked like yours! Mine are doing nothing yet. Grr. Lovely garden Pixi.

I don't think it's a hollyhock either; I sort of recognise the flower but can't for the life of me remember what it is!

Cats. Don't you just love em :-)

Fab garden Pixi. Great photo's. Love the Rainbow :o) I have a similar clematis lots of flowers but daren't go and look at it after the weather we have now. Our cat is in the dog house, he pinched a huge Golden Orf out of the pond and chewed its head off, leaving my son and his friends traumatised !!!!!

Success at last Pixi and well worth the wait, typical cat, exactly what happens here, I swear they are as awkward as some humans, wait until the camera is set and ready and then move, I s`pose it could be a case of " not that thing in her hand again"lol.....
