wish my hostas looked like that, they resemble net curtains at the moment, even with loads of slug pellets round them

Thankyou, Cherry. That's a real compliment. I like 'painting with flowers'!

Geranium certainly "paints" some beautiful pictures in her garden. Glad to see your Angelface has flowered Geraniuim.....and lots of buds "waiting in the wings"

No, mine aren't doing well either. The 'ordinary' orange ones I inherited have no visible buds yet! My 'Catherine Woodberry' has only one stem, and I can't even get to it to take its photo - Never mind - yours is here. I really like your 'Alisar', Grindle! Here's a 'girly'pink photo. ;D This is what my box at the village sign looks like now - it has really filled out, and I'm pleased with ithe effect, even though one of the supposedly scarlet begonias has flowered pink! I still wouldn't want this colour scheme in my garden. It was a real departure from my 'norm'. ;D

I like pineapple lilies So do I Steve ;D Have your 'Sparkling Burgundy' started flowering yet? I've taken your advice (from last year) and fed mine and they've had plenty of water but still no sign of flowers. Hi Peony, Noticed there are flower stems now on the 'Sparkling burgundy'

Grindle,your blue salvia is a beautiful colour and Sammy Russell is a great colour. My hemerocallis have just started flowering. Geranium, your village box is looking good, shame about the colour of the begonia, it is annoying when that happens, good job it wasn't in your garden Steve, still no sign of flowers on my 'Sparkling Burgundy' but lots of healthy looking foliage like Lou's. I'll keep looking

Lovely salvia Grindle & I haven't seen that Alissar rose before, it's very pretty & probably attracts bees etc. as it's quite open? That planter has filled out very nicely Geranium.
