It looks lovely Ann, oh so tidy. I wish mine was, I still have an upturned boat awaiting 'refurbishment' that's driving me mad.
By the way thanks to that 'Allotment' website you linked to yesterday, I was able to find the name of my mysterious yellow spike flower. Thanks

Lovely garden Widget!!

Lovely pictures, Ann. I thought the same as June regarding tidiness ..... I'm still playing catch-up with my garden since I broke my wrist last October. Then, what with the cold, wet weather we had this spring, I'm wondering if I'll ever get to grips with it ever again.

I suppose at our age, (Brian 70 on Tuesday and me 70 in August) our garden is getting much too big to manage and Brian only grows veggies whilst I do most of the flowers.

Lovely garden, do you cut the grass as well? The edges are so neat....

Thanks for your kind comments on my garden, I do it all myself and I love doing it, I spend all my time out there, either sitting and reading or working.

Mostly working if the pictures are anything to go by Widget, it's a credit to you

Everything is growing well, Widge - especially the Verbascum.
Mine has now come into flower.

Thanks Emm, that Verbascum you can see in picture 4. looks like Jack and the Beanstalk, it won't stop growing,

Yes, mine too - they must be about 5 feet tall now.
They are only supposed to grow to about three feet, aren't they?
Goes to show - never take any notice of the 'experts'.

When I first saw picture 4, Ann, I thought you had some red salvias growing in the bottom right-hand corner

The first verbascum I ever grew was the same variety as you have there and it grew to just above fence level. I didn't know what it was at that time and my brother-in-law swore it was "nobby greens".

The flowers were really lovely and lasted a long time.

WOW that has put my garden in the shade Ann. Its lovely.

I am no gardener.

When I do grow anything Alex and Gigi piddle on it and kills it off.

Monika, do you mean the date???

Thanks Maywalk, I also have my daughters old dog (in the photo) 3 days a week, and the other 3 often come and see me, but they are well trained
it's neighbours cats that are my problem, still I do like cats

My Love in a mist seed heads.

WOW, Emm!

That is a wonderful picture.

It just makes me wonder why Damien Hirst's pickled sheep sitting on the loo with a hypodermic needle sticking out of its leg, not to mention 'throwing-up' gets the artistic nod of approval from the arty-farties. (Especially as he only thinks his so-called 'art' these days ........... and a team of others do the work).

The Tate, National Gallery etc should be full of pictures like yours, Emm ....................... BEAUTIFUL
