The 'Delargo Towers' Garden - August 2014

Well me dears despite being full of good intentions little has been done this month.

Here we are then with a quick round up of how things are at the moment.

The dahlias are  putting on a fab show anyway.

Still lots of work needs to be done.

a good year for the cosmos even if they are still homeless.

Along with the other orphans.

We managed to rescue the petunias and get them back into flower.

The Californian poppies have been a joy.

The star this month has to be the Korean Mint it just keeps on flowering and is just lovely.

Lets hope we can get a bit more done next month. 

Keep posted

Random - Style And Substance

We often use a quote from the film ' To Wong Foo,' here at Delargo Towers. 

 " Style or Substance ? Hmmm."

But why settle for one when you should have both.
