The aubretia is lovely - might just visit Morrisons next week although it never does very well in our garden. I'd have been hopping mad about next door's son too - still haven't forgiven our neighbours for chopping at our beech hedge with scissors!!!! and coming 12" over the boundary into our garden.<br /><br />My son has just been to a wedding in Wales - a place called fforest near Cardigan - a wedding among the trees which sounded lovely although I gather it was freezing cold!Ragged Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14090463834740346114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-78885064969659976712015-05-02T16:14:04.832-07:002015-05-02T16:14:04.832-07:00I am envious of your rampant clematis!

Back for more Aubretias tomorrow I think . . .<br /><br />parsnip - he cut it from the other side, as this was the farmhouse to their farm (until they sold the house to us). The Clematis grew both sides of the trellis we put up and so he did what he wanted on HIS side. The Pelargoniums are Geraniums, it's just their "posh" name! I'm glad you think I have a lovely garden. I do too!Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-17248789744596332772015-05-02T13:00:38.448-07:002015-05-02T13:00:38.448-07:00I love the plantings on the wall.

Outstanding beautiful.<br />Your garden is wonderful.<br />Your pelargoniums look like geraniums to me ?<br />How did next doors son get in your garden ? I would still hold a grudge too for something like that.<br /><br />cheers, parsnipangryparsniphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17236094827257446781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-77143128979398974532015-05-02T09:49:10.946-07:002015-05-02T09:49:10.946-07:00Great bargains on those plants and the aubretias l...Great bargains on those plants and the aubretias look stunning in your wall.SeagullSuziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15857680854262709165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-48593397676189117572015-05-02T09:31:54.117-07:002015-05-02T09:31:54.117-07:00The trouble is Pat, my garden can't forget it ...The trouble is Pat, my garden can't forget it used to Be A Field! It wants to return to that state a.s.a.p.! I am certainly kept busy with it, which is a good thing. Most years I am out gardening 5 - 8 hours a day to keep on top of the weeds and get the veg. plot sorted and planted! They will be competing with the Lily of the Valley for spreading out.<br /><br />Thanks Vicky - it's slowly coming on. The cold snap is horrid, but at least it stops the early plants going over too quickly.<br /><br />Sue in Suffolk - thank you. I will have to work out which Clematis it is. I know one of them is really highly-scented and you can also float on the perfume. Not this one though - unless it needs the sunshine to bring out the scent.<br /><br />Thanks Simon. Spring will reach everywhere sooner or later, even if it means being a couple of weeks behind the rest.<br /><br />Pam - I didn't know you could buy Ramsons to plant up. I thought of you yesterday when I drove past a half mile stretch of them along a lane!! Handy to have them in the garden though.Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-86821102501079646512015-05-02T07:29:08.038-07:002015-05-02T07:29:08.038-07:00looking very pretty, hopefully my mums place will ...looking very pretty, hopefully my mums place will soon be brightening upSimon Douglas Thompsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16331409652996600049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-86465621127572556732015-05-02T07:17:56.606-07:002015-05-02T07:17:56.606-07:00That wall looks brilliant and so does the clematis...That wall looks brilliant and so does the clematis.Sue in Suffolkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13166036914348424622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-61842369720009486862015-05-02T01:43:11.855-07:002015-05-02T01:43:11.855-07:00Gardens looking lovely .. love the wall.

Although I have found a good stand of wild garlic I have just ordered some on line, plenty so that I can share them with a friend, and a few Lily of the Valley and some single snowdrops, they will fill a suitably shady and damp patch at the edge of my yet to be perpetual spinach bed.Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18406981075860636289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-36022118365341107382015-05-02T00:42:05.312-07:002015-05-02T00:42:05.312-07:00Several folk have posted photographs of Bramleys i...Several folk have posted photographs of Bramleys in blossom - I am struck by how dark the pink is in them all<br />Your garden does not look an easy garden to tame, but you seem to be making a gigantic effort - lovely bits so far. I am a great fan of pelargoniums on pots, they flower all summer - but we can't put them out up here yet = frosts every night.The Weaver of Grasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947971556343746883noreply@blogger.com
