Garden Flowers

We didn't think that the Turnip House Yard would look so colourful this season, but it's coming on great - there is a reason for rain as we've noted before!

crocosmia

flower of the summer - argyranthemum

the flowers open a dark yellow, and gradually fade to white, giving hundreds of creamy tones in the one plant

These buddleia (and the lilies) were only planted this April, they now reach the top of the wall

less exciting, but still beautiful

intense pelargonum flowers
