In bloom in April

beautiful collection of plants!

Thanks for the comment Bathgate, all the way from New York. Our garden is my refuge too. Not much room for veggies but apples, pears, blackberries, jostaberries, grapes, chives. Just added a Tayberry. We used to grow lots of veg in our previous larger garden.

You have some lovely heucheras Dorjac. Stoplight doesn't seem very happy in this garden, I don't know why as its in a shady sheltered spot.

Your garden is looking wonderful. Re your comment about Sweet Tea - I've tried this plant 3 times and each time it fails. Perhaps it's a weak plant. You often find that don't you? None of the 3 I tried succumb to vine weevil - Obsidian is just the same. I'm just about to rip it out and bin it.
My Camellias are just coming out now, which is normal here but lots more are bounding away.
Your garden is looking gorgeous Dorjac!

Oh I love pears!! I eat one every morning. What kind are you growing? I love the Anjou Pears. I wish I had space for fruit trees. I've planted carrots, potatoes, onions and beets and all is looking good so far - tomatoes plants are growing on the kitchen window.

Your garden is lovely Dorjac and all of your plants look so healthy, everything is so far ahead this year in all the gardens, you have some smashing Heucheras, I have found they do better in pots than in the ground so now just keep all mine in pots, I will be a happy goyer if they do as well as yours.
Lovely photo's...

I like pears a lot Bathgate. We have Conference, Doyenne du Comice and Beurre du something as the name on the label has faded on dwarf rooting stock, the other one has no label left. Scottish my sweet tea grew huge and looked great. Then the top blew off in one of the gales! Steragram the label on my Main Stoplight says full sun or half shade. They are dotted around and are off sprigs but the main one is under the canopy facing SW.
