| After all the recent rain and mild temperatures, everything is growing away, weeds included of course. It's as if the Hosta clumps increase in size every day  
Penstemons are beginning to flower too. 
Iris and Foxglove 

Love the colour of this Osterspurnum 
but as you see, time to get stuck into hedge cutting Yesterday afternoon did both sides of No.1
and a third of No.2 
and how am I going to get in there without causing any damage, you may ask?????? With great difficulty and being very careful , when that's finished only No.3 to do, so I don't have to look for a job atm, Happy Gardening

My Alliums are doing their annual thing. A lot of people neglect this faithful flower.
My name is Don and I'm a bonsaiholic. Now, where are those tablets?

Very nice to see your garden looking so pretty, Kath. I had hedges like that but have cut them right down this year and will keep them low.
I always mean to grow aliums, Stymie. Must get some. I like that a lot.

| I mostly grow A. Purple sensation but have a smaller number of show stoppers like A. Globemaster and A. Rosenbachianum. The blooms may last for less than a month but the seedheads are useful for year round decoration.
