A Sunny Day in my Daughter's Garden

I love the sedums, the colours and shapes are so interesting
those little Erigeron are quite common in the south I think snd everywhere in Guernsey, I do't see them in the midlands, they mudt like the warmth!

the hens look happy ?

Thank you Pam the sinks are looking lovely just now, The
Erigerons are a favorite I'd kept a look out for some for her as they are not so plentiful, the hens were basking in the warm soil until I decided to take a snap :)

Thank you for liking Klahanie and TT :)

I to like the trough plantings but then I would.
I do however find it difficult to grow semps and sedums outside in our winter wet.

Lovely Photos

Lovely troughs,and I love the dewdrop on the Sedum,well spotted,Neellan :o) also the Spiders web..they are so many of them at the moment..pretty Rose too.Those little Chucks look happy ! .Thanks for taken us round your daughters garden ..xxx

Thank you Bjs the troughs are outside year round against the side wall of the house and have survived at least one winter maybe two I don't remember when they were planted up! :)

Thank you Peter for liking my photos :)

Thank you Bloomer glad you enjoyed the quick trip around the garden her troughs seem to be at their best just now, just lovely to pick out a few things with my camera in the sunshine :)

The troughs are just about the most artistically arranged ones I can remember seeing - not a big fan of trough gardens generally but these are great.

Its nice to see the free range chickens - hope there are no foxes around! They must cut down the weeding too.

The alpines in the troughs look spectacular.

Thank you Steragram my daughter will be thrilled to read your kind comments, the chickens have a lovely wooden home and run but they are allowed freedom of the garden quite often :)

Thank you Paul your kind comment is much appreciated :)

Thank you for liking jaykaty :)

I love your daughter's garden and think she has had such great ideas for successful planting. The pink rose is identical to the pink rose we have and we don't have its name either!

I must get some erigerons as I think they are so very pretty.

Thank you Wildrose she will be pleased to read all your nice comments, the rose has such a lovely perfume, the Erigerons look so good for so long I'm sure you will love them :)

Thank you for liking Resi :)

There must be some way of covering trough gardens in the winter months to help them survive the cold and wet.
They are too heavy to lift. I cover my hardy plants bed with
Fleece.

Thank you for that tip Diane I'm sure the gardeners with troughs will find it useful :)

Thank you for liking Kidsgran and Linda :)
