Your border certainly looks well crammed, and the plants very healthy. Well done.

Thanks M & P.Once some of the plants fill out I might be happy with it and stop moving things around.

I bet you have lots of bees and hoverflys buzzing around.

You'll probably never stop "moving things around" Pcw ....that's what makes gardening so exciting....things never look the same from one season to another, or one year to the next do they? Enjoy your lovely border this summer...then change it around in autumn...then tweak it again next spring :)

Bees can cover the blue Globe Thistle.Also the border Alliums earlier in the year.I also get plenty of ladybirds,butterflies and hoverflies aswell as vine weevils and scarlet lilly beetles,unfortunatley.
