My little bit of Heaven

wonderful plants as always in your garden and great photography too!

I like "And another rhododendron" very much. Amazing colour. And Viburnum Mariesii, too. How high is the yellow peony?

Thank you for the joy and pleasure Brian.

Wonderful photos Brian, very pretty garden, and love Jamie.

Lovely Rhodies Brian also the daphne great shrubs.

All gorgeous Brian. You are about three weeks. ahead of my Vir M. &. C. Multi blue

It's quite a bit taller than me about 8ft (2.5 mtrs)

Dawn this is one of a small number of Clematis that thrive here,Larger flowered ones are not that happy.

You have garden heaven, look forward to seeing your future Clem pics

Stunning pictures Brian and a lovely collection of plants, I love the Paeonia Lutea;0)

Gorgeous photos and plants! Enjoyed looking at your photos!

Heaven indeed. That aquilegia is a distinct improvement on Nora Barlow - beautiful. Nancy Evans is so unusual, isn't she gorgeous?

Wonderful !! A joy to look at

your garden looks beautiful, so much colour, would brighten up anyone's day,

Simply spectactular.

Thank you for these lovely photos. I was choked to find my camera had run out of battery power when we visited your Shangri-la last week. My plants all travelled home safely. When we got to my daughters we found she has an acacia in flower. It was great to see the garden in Spring. It was quite different from our last visit. The plant whose name you can not remember is a Smilacina racemosa I think.

Just the most heavenly show Brian!

Members with acidic soil certainly score with Ericacious
plants that have matured, and provide screening from these horrible north winds.
Very enjoyable blog, thank you Brian.

''paradise''

Stunning Brian !!

Thanks scotsgran and Jent will put a label on it,I can't be expected to remember that name.

so so pretty and so colourful, love them all, the peoney is amazing, lovely colour yellow, must try harder in my garden to get more colour early on, although after saying that you are a lot further on than we are here think it is the light that slows mine down so much, too many trees cutting out the light. Ah well lots to look forward to I suppose, thanks for a beautiful blog with a fantastic photograph set. :O)

An amazing garden Brian packed full of vibrant colour I could almost hear the Bees buzzing around , and of course Jamie completes the look ... :o))

So much colour Brian, it looks wonderful :o)

What a lovely blog - your garden looks so pretty, Brian. :-))

Great garden Brian.Lovely Rhodos.

Sorry, one more question - do you know the name of this peony, please?

Those rhodedendrons are truly magnificent as is everything else. Nancy Evans is a very pretty one but I love all the pink ones too.

Katarina
It is P.Lutea (I did label it)if you want fresh seed I will see if I can salvage some as they ripen before the squirrel's eat them all.
Like all peony they will take about four/five years to flower.

Brian ....it is so very beautiful. Quite amazing!

Thank you, Brian, I will wish to get some, but I have never grow peonies this way, always by splitting their root system. So I am unaware how to seed them, when to seed them and how to take care for the rest.

thoroughly enjoying your garden plants, wonderful place to be right now despite the weather.

Thank you all for your comments on my little bit of Heaven. Part 2 coming shortly
Katarina may be able to acquire a young plant for you ,as said they are very scarce coming up in my garden as squirrel devours them other wise seed with cultural instructions .lol

Thank you!

How wonderful...absolutely beautiful !
