Some heatwave survivors

Interesting to see which plants survive the extreme heat, and which can’t be bothered!
I’m delighted with these Verbena Endurance Blush …
…and Verbena Burgundy
Hydrangea petiolaris
Our beloved Copper Beech (dwarf)
Melica with Geranium Ann Folkard
Bonsai copper beech
Geranium Bill Wallis
I hope you are pleased with your survivors too, although they do need quite a bit to drink!

LOvely plants, Not really taken stock of what has /hasn't survived yet. We have also been away and though cool there has been no rain here either.

Thanks Sheila, I was trying to identify a little purple geranium I had neglected and low and behold your picture came up and presto! It’s Bill Wallis! Thanks.

Oh dear, that’s sad Julia. We were hoping for rain but it bypassed us by a few miles … heard the thunder though.
