| Alliums and Aquilega | 
After last year's terrible weather it's been lovely to actually get into the garden and enjoy the planting. This year the alliums have put on a great show (we didn't see them last year) and the day lilies - Hemerocalis - are thriving. I have replaced the Penstemons that died off from the bitter cold of last winter and planted Nepeta and Gladioli too.

Meanwhile, at the back garden there are peas, onions, parsley, lettuce, broccoli and more Gladioli crammed into the small veg patch. Sadly, the courgettes have been a casualty of the snails and, although the remaining solitary courgette plant is flowering, the flowers won't set.
