Some more Asiatic lillium come out. Must spray with fungicide. Left the allium globemaster flower heads on I like the contrast . Big agapanthus africanus opening alongside. The yellow lillies are actually a lovely pale peach colour. Does not photograph well. T and m bouquet Asiatic Lily interesting colour. Past there best after I hosed them.

Where are you using the fungicide Raymond? Those lilies are beautiful and may need Tumblebug or similar for the lily beetles.

There is some rust on some and a couple look to have botrytis. Don't seem to have much problem with Lily beetle. See occasionally and if spotted either get crushed or I zap them.
Main issues here are leaf miner, capsid blackfly and the usual slugs and snails.

First garden friends Tel love the colour. The two damaged ones coming on great now. Buds coming on them. I don't think I will try to show garden friends I want to enjoy them in the border. If I did want to show do you stop them ?

I did not stop them Raymond, I just dis bud near my show dates. Not sure if the Collarettes I bought this season need stopping or not.

SueA stunning roses . Is for your eyes only and blue eyes scented ? Margaret Merrill is a cracking rose. Loved it last year . Flowers not been so good this year so far. Just think it's been so dry here.

All lovely photos, those T+M lilies of yours are some of the most interesting I've ever seen too, Raymond. I like the 'blast of colour' lilies but some more subtle ones like that would be nice!
