Hi All, while we were away it seem things really exploded in the garden. We left brown grass and twig-like trees and when we returned a jungle had sprouted!!! I thought I'd share a few pictures, but please remember that we are Townies, so our garden is very small! Let's go out to the front...
Giant Allum
Peony ready to burst open
I planted Irises a two years ago and last year we only had leaves. This handsome fella was the first one out and I'm happy to report that five more followed!
This poor little Weigelia doesn't get enough sun, but it managed to make some flowers :-)
Chives blooming
Our mystery tree which is very tall and reaches past the roof of the house. We think it might be some kind of ornamental Cherry, it doesn't produce any fruit. NOTE*** Thanks to Lizzie & 3 Kitties we now know this is an Ornamental Bradford Pear! Yay :-)
The last of the Daffs
and finally, I bought this Hydrangea NINE weeks ago and it still looks fantastic!!! Does anyone know if I plant it will it bloom again next year, seeing as it is a potted variety?
I hope you enjoyed the tour, next week we'll look at the back garden :-)

There is still a little happening in the garden, even at this late stage of the summer. Despite oppressive heat, humidity, neglect AND a lack of rain, my garden is doing quite well. I can't discount the value of old...

I thought I'd join in with the gardening kitties out there. I'm afraid my garden is woefully neglected at the moment. It's been too hot lately to do any serious work outdoors but I did manage to take a few pictures of things...
- Are You Ready For Spring?
Although some of the plant life in our gardens may have been confused by the UK’s warmest December on record, spring is only now on the horizon. Many of us will be looking forward to the longer, warmer days and those who enjoy getting their hands dirty...
