August 2019 in my garden
by Wendy Syddall
Is quite a wet place but filled with colour and some new plants. The early flowers such as poppies, lupins and foxgloves (picture below of a late flowerer) have mostly finished and the later flowers such as Japanese anemones (picture below), rudbeckia, helenium and phlox are steeling the show.
I have been busy digging out a dusky pink overgrown celone from the long border (as I call it), digging in compost and replanting with a variety of things. A lovely blue Veronica (seems quite happy in its spot),
a perennial foxglove, chocolate cosmos, dianthus and some lupin grown from seed. The lupins were very happy in the greenhouse but much less impressed with the garden.

………..everything looks very healthy and colourful in your garden. Raining here in Blakeney too, so promised BBQ later does not look very likely! Managed a bike ride this morning but no chance this afternoon. Had to clear the storm damage yesterday – buddlea branches soon come crashing down in the wind.

Amazing that your hellebore is flowering! We’ve had quite a lot of sun to compensate over the last few days.

It’s a very confused plant! I think it flowered this time last year as well. Maybe I should have stopped it so it would return to normal!
