We all need cheering up, with the snow and the season where we can’t exactly do much with the garden.

So, here are some pictures from my garden in the Summer.

Spring and Summer 2011, will see so much more colour, becasue I have gone all out for the first year after finding out how fun gardening actually is in February 2010.

Lets leave this behind:

Now after the depressing pictures, it is time to cast your eyes over a few pictures to brighten your mood:


Crocosmia


Yellow Chrysanthemum


Yellow Bush Rose


Red Patio Rose


Blue Gentian


Pink Heather


Michaelmas (Aster Pink)


Michaelmas (Aster Blue)


Patio Carnation


Yellow Cypress


Celosia


Cosmos


Yellow Patio Rose


Marigolds


Pensham Czar

Just hang on a bit longer, and Spring will be here before you know it.

Thanks and I love the meerkats as well, so had to buy that planter as soon as I saw it.

In Spring and Summer I should hopefully have blogs full of spring & Summer plants.

CAN'T WAIT!
