Woo Hoo! Summer’s here!
Here’s my first full buckets of summer blooms from my garden this year.
Most of my flowers are a good 3 weeks later than usual but they are certainly making up for lost time now.
Growing a range of annuals, perennials, shrubs and herbs means that there’s always a good mix of textures, colours and scent.
That’s typical of an English country garden.
I wish you could smell these… they’re gorgeous.
If you grow your own flowers you can select your favourite colours, choose scented varieties and if you garden organically like me then you’ll know there are no harmful chemical residues on the plants.
My friendly ‘Pest Controllers’ are never far away when I’m in the garden. Thanks to the wild ducks most of the slugs never get a chance to nibble on my beautiful flowers.
I hope the sun is shining where you are today. Happy Gardening!
Gillian 🙂
