The End Of A Wet and Blustery May

Lovely colourful photos Carole and I am so envious of the Dicentra 'Bleeding Heart' as they will not grow in my garden. The Saxifrage is a beauty ... :o)

Your boarders and garden is looking wonderful wow what a beauty that Thalictrum is love it.

Nice colorful garden. I hope you see the sun soon. We've had nothing but warm sunny days.

A lovely collection there , Pp .

Lovely Corole! Great Astrantia from Hywel! Love the Welsh poppies too.

Lovely plants here and I too love saxifrage with their sweet little flowers.

I love the mixtures in your borders and they look so pretty.

This weather is rather strange isn't it, and evenings are so chilly.

Improving next week I am told!

cold and wet here windy with it too. :O( Your garden looks lovely and so much colour.

Your garden looks lovely despite the bad weather Pansypotter. We have nothing but sunshine and very dry spring and my garden does not look as nice as yours.

All looking very nice carole, not been a very good month has it.. but the plants always seem to shoot up when we've had some rain.....:))

Your garden is always a delight to see Carole thank you for allowing us to walk round with you ,now for that cuppa out of the rain Lol ...

Hi Wildrose Thankyou for your lovely comment, we have sunshine here today so we have just been out for a nice long walk;0)
Thanks Olive for your comments, the plants do seem to be thriving on this wet weather [wish I was] lol

Thanks Klahanie Sunshine sounds very nice to me, but I can understand the plants need their ration of rain too , to look their best;0)

Hi Holly we have certainly had our fair share of Rain, but hey today is dry and sunny so going to make the most of it;0)

Thanks Amy pleased you enjoyed the walk around my garden, its Sunny today so we have had a nice long walk and Lunch out ;0)

I know we needed rain but did it have to be so WET!
going to art group in a downpour like that does nothing for watercolour......or maybe it does ?

your garden seems to be thriving on it anyway ....I love the colours and the mingles....

been bright here too , some cloud but anythings better than yesterday.....more rain overnight and into tomorrow, oh well maybe June will be better, its a gardeners best skill I think.....hope ?

You have some lovely Plants Carole. Your garden looks nice and colourful.
I'm pleased the Astrantia is doing well :o) I had forgotten I'd sent it to you lol
I am slow catching up again ... but got here in the end :D

Hi Pam hope the rain doesnt wash your Water Colour away! Its rained throughout the night and still raining now, so frustrating when there are plants waiting to be potted up, but June tomorrow hope its a Flaming one ;0)

Hello Hywel not seen you around for awhile hope you are well? your Astrantia is looking great despite the weather its opened up fully now ;0)

Just read that a heatwaves on its way....But may wave goodbye quite quickly ?

thankfully I had plastic carrier bags round the drawing board it was on.....do you remember that tv ad , think it was for flake....she sat painting poppies in a cornfield in the rain.....

Look forward to seeing your painting when its finished Pam ;0)

Yes I'm all right thank you. Just haven't had much time lately :)

Very pretty flowers, glad you love welsh poppies, they're the only yellow flowers I allow in my garden:-)

I am sat here going stircrazy listening to the wind howling and watching the willow tree dancing in the rain, a walk was just what I needed Carole even if it was from my armchair, lol, you already know I love a good mingle, my kind of gardening, as always your garden looks smashing....

I love your mixes and mingles Carole and I hope you have more success than me when growing the Thalictrum from seed Amy kindly sent me some but I can`t see anything yet.

Hywel Glad to hear you are ok;0)

Hi Lincs pleased you enjoyed your tour around my garden, the weather has been dreadful, I have been popping out between showers, much nicer today though;0)

Hi Phyl good to see you around, hope you are feeling better, My Thalictrum seeds are growing very slowly, but once you have one established they do seed themselves around! good luck with yours ;0)

So many of the flowers you grow in your garden - I grow in mine. Lovely pictures and a real tour of your charming garden. The yellow Welsh Poppies are now all over my garden and I would not be without them. I first 'acquired' them on a visit to Balmoral in Scotland when bending over a couple of the seed heads and they accidentally came off in my hand and found their way in an old envelope and in my pocket.

Lol Johnp, its funny that should happen to you its happened to me too on a number of occasions Ha Ha

I really love this garden, there's a lot of beautiful flowers and makes my day so happy , thanks for sharing your wonderful garden Pansy :-)))
