:)Very lovely @hywel.....We enjoy looking at your fuchsias Thank you. I am pleased Sometimes I think I keep on about them too much ....It is a mad hobby @hywel, but we like to share it. We are all guilty and it is natural to branch off into favourite sections.

This is my favourite Fuschia from T+M - 'White Gold.' I got six mixed plugs free with other plants I bought. It had a bad start to life as I left it outside when I went away in late May for my sister's wedding, and it got very cold! But it's recovered pretty well, although the leaves still look a tiny bit yellowy?

Lovely fuchsia Bess, perhaps the 'gold' part of 'White Gold' is meant to be the leaves

Lovely show Peony. I can see an Aconitum behind waiting for its turn to show off.

I like Turk's Cap lilies - I must try to grow some next year. They're lovely, peony. This is Diascia personata still flowering like mad. I must try to take some cuttings off it soon.

Lovely show Peony. I can see an Aconitum behind waiting for its turn to show off. Well spotted Cherry My white spring Aconitums didn't flower this year, they made plenty of green growth but I think the early warmth and lack of rain here may be the reason

Your Diascia is lovely Geranium, do you cut it back after the first flush of flowers? Mine flowered well earlier but looks a bit 'leggy' now. I must take some cuttings too

No, peony, I just cut off the spent 'sprigs' of flowers. It just goes on and on flowering all summer and into the autumn.

Your flowers look quite charming in the rain @hywel. Mine are drying out quickly.

I hope your garden will get some rain soon .....
