My passion in life is gardening and specifically growing flowers from seed

Rose Margaret Meryll

I love white flowers and am always looking to plant more of them. This is one of my favourite roses but don’t tell the others. It’s not the biggest rose and these are probably the only flowers it’ll have this year but they are beautiful

June 2025 in my garden

After a good few months of very dry weather and our many water butts emptying rapidly the rain seems to have started and forgotten to stop. The garden is grateful though and has been growing away although I have to say my foxgloves seem to have stunted growth this year and aren’t as tall as expected which is a shame as I plant them at the back of the border. I have lots of things flowering and here are some pictures – a lot of white and also pink.

Campanula

I don’t think I’ve ever posted a picture of this on here before. It’s a very easy going flower and I have it in blue and white in the garden. Not sure where it came from but I’m very happy it’s here. It’s very easy going and seems to grow anywhere, I never water it just cut it to the ground when the flowers have finished

June 2020 in my garden

Lots of plants flowering at the moment, in fact properly something different starts each day. The soil seems dry again even after so much rain but at least the water butts are full! I went out weeding yesterday and was excited to find some more spaces in the garden which means o can buy more plants. Still only online for me! Anyway here’s some pictures of what’s currently flowering

Sweetpeas grown from seed I’ve collected over several years so therefore I have no idea what variety but they smell lovely
Mock orange, it has a scent but not one I like. However, I love the white flowers
Geranium grown from a cutting in case the original died which fortunately it didn’t. I gave the original a harsh pruning in the winter and then kept it in the greenhouse overwinter but it looks great for the treatment it’s endured!

Clematis

I don’t need many words to describe these really but just to say I love white flowers and this white clematis is definitely my favourite of the ones we have in our garden

Wordless Wednesday – Veronica

Snowdrops at last

I thought they had rotted or been eaten but I should have remembered that plants/bulbs in my northern garden are never as far ahead as the south. So I’m very pleased to have found some flowering when I was out just now tidying up again. I keep thinking I’ve finished tidying but I don’t think I ever will. It’s a bit cold for me really (not good for my chest) but I was glad to be outside. I really miss it in winter. So here are the snowdrops I’ve found. A bit small I know but better than nothing and I’m definitely going to get more next year
