Here we are again me dears with another catch-up post. (One more to go, and then as long as I get September's in on time, we will be sorted.)
Our red and yellow bed is doing well.
Coreopsis grandiflora "Early Sunrise" in the foreground.
Most of the Penstemon last year seemed to be red, so where moved. This Spring we had more pinks ones than I thought. Hey Ho !
Crocosmia 'Lucifer' looking fab:
As is our fave Dahlia 'Bishop's Children' seedlings
The main border burst into growth this month:
Nicotiana mutabilis and Cleome hassleriana:

Orlaya grandiflora:
Scabiosa - 'Blue Jeans':
Polemonium caeruleum (Jacob's Ladder)
Verbena bonariensis "Purple Top" seeded itself all over:
We added 30 varieties !, of Fuchsia to our garden this year - and now have more pots than you could imagine;
but we found a place for them all somehow.
