Rudbeckia fulgida var deamii

Lovely with the Crocosmia behind. :)

Thanks Karen and so many buds, should flower for a good period of time.

Yes, I think September is going to be good! :))

Don't you just love all the bright colours right now :-), lovely Dawn.
I nearly had to put my sunglasses on today a dahlia opened talk about shocking pink lol, love it !!!

Hi Kathy. Yes. Love the brights. I've just been looking at your dahlias, beautiful, a little later than your usual Cosmos but have the wow factor. I'm loving my cosmos, dotted around, brightening the garden.

What are your other stars at the moment?

Oooo so much still looking good Dawn, Perovskia best its ever been saponaria (double) yes bit of a runner but the scent today in the sun, heleniums, sedums of course :-) a lot of salvias look good quite a few roses reblooming couple of nice hydrangeas covered in flowers and there's still all the asters to come!! my favourite ,'Little Carlow' , which I'm determined to get in every border lol will be open any day now :-)

Sounds lovely Kathy, Ive treated myself to a few plants ..... one was Perovskia and A. Little carlow, after seeing yours. Hydrangeas struggle here but I do get H. Paniculata to flower. Love Salvia. In the past I've pulled up Saponaria but I leave it now, I don't know what mine is? Did I send you a root of my favourite Aster? Small and compact and lovely, unknown name?
