That's a real stunner Steve ;D Your bergenias are looking good, mine are all finished now. What I find is Rotblum starts late and seems to flower longer than others too. Next doors Bergenia cordifolia have finished too, just grey brown spent heads now. I really recommend this variety if you want to extend your season.

Thanks Steve, I've made a note of the name, I'll look out for that one

I can never quite decide if I like this Primula. It goes well in my island bed...

I like it Geranium, green flowers add another dimension in the right place. I love your rhodo Steve N & your little pond area Steve, I think my pond is probably not much bigger!

Some pretty flowers out in the sunshine today, 3 aquilegias, only know the last one is William Guinness (I think!) Welsh poppies. Erysimum 'Bowles Mauve' Mini roses Bee on tayberry flower and around the little pond, the yellow flag iris leaves are sticking out of it in the centre of the photo.
