I agree with Sue and you should send a photo along. It is not as advertised in their illustration.

This is one of my favourite plants - Chamaecytisus purpureus. It has to drape over a wall to be seen at its best. Akebia quinata - growing through a Berberis. Daphne cneorum Dodecatheon media

Lovely pictures Geranium and Grindle Grindle your hostas and Acer look beautiful together. All the rain seems to made lots of plants grow bigger and taller this year.

These are fantastic plants and pictures and there is not one I don't covet. If I had to choose one, it would be the Daphne cneorum which belongs to Geranium.

That is Cortusa matthioli ssp pekinensis which is part of the primula family. My seeds sown last August are just coming through, so I will have some small plants spare, possibly in the autumn. Esther, even the leaves are pretty and are beautiful when they are just coming through. However, you know all this already.

Oooh - that's lovely! If you do have any spares, I'd love one please Cherry!
I like that Primula 'Appleblossom' - what a lovely colour!
