~All looking very lovely M. Looks like youve caught up with everything and got it all how it should be again. My garden is looking very sorry for itself - all the poppies are bashed down and have torn petals that have gone see-through. Oh well...that's life !

All back in order and looking so fresh, like poppylover my oriental poppies are looking very bashed about but there are still more buds on them so hoping for another show.

lovely indeed - I wish now I'd have put my pond on ground level - it looks miles better like that - wonderful garden ML - a lot of the planting is what I have favoured in my garden too

The pond will need an Autumn clean out,I fear! It isn't very deep,paul.......the underlying ground was rock!I do recognise many similar plants in both our gardens.I do like the plank you have placed across yours....gives it the natural look.

Thanks Nana , Grandmage.and Bjs. It's such a shame about the poppies,Stroller.They are such striking flowers in a border.

Sorry I'm coming to this so late, J...I don't know where the time goes, sometimes...

Everything looks absolutely beautiful as always...
...and, I'm suffering from "lack of weeds" envy, too, (sigh)! ;)))

The creeping Jenny is going to be removed,it just gallops away......so there will be plenty of space for weeds!!!The routes of the "Lysimachia" are quite fibrous and difficult to dig up.Will have to give this job to John.

I just bought two little creeping weed suppressors, J...
Mazus reptans and Crucianella stylosa...both very pretty...and the crucianella is very fragrant.

If you google them, you might find them quite interesting

I will,K,thanks!:0)))))
