We were watering the garden early this evening (we know morning is better as those later waterings bring the slugs and snails out) and at the bottom of the garden heard the loudest humming and buzzing sounds from the flowering pyracantha. Looks like the bees love those flowers!
And we mentioned, here’s a part two from Debby H. She wrote “Here’s a photo of our tomato plants in our little Lidl greenhouse (above), plus one of a couple of them that we planted in a “Grow Zone” that we bought last year, also from Lidl (below).”
“Regarding indoor plants, I have attached a picture of my cactus which blooms every year with dozens of little red flowers, and also one of a flower that has appeared on a succulent that we have had for several years but of has never flowered before.”
Brilliant stuff as ever Debby! Thanks again.
Thanks to Debby H for sending us some recent pictures of her garden. This may turn into a two-part post as she sent us some great images.
We must start with the cosmos (above) that have been planted out and you can see still in the cardboard toilet roll inners. As Debby said “(it) makes the planting much easier, which is good when you have dozens of plants” and she’s right. The loo roll inners look like a part of the display too. A winner all round!
Here’s a couple of pictures of French lavender (one under the netting protecting some strawberries). We bought a plant of the same a few months ago and we do love the overall look of it.
And we love the blossom on her red robin tree (below). She said that it seems to have more blossom on it than previous years this spring.
“The peonies are doing well (above). Here’s a picture of one of the flowers just opening (below).” Great stuff!
Thanks again Debby and we’ll post your other pics later this week.
