What's new in the garden

I've planted herbs: coriander, mint, basil chives and parsley
plus chillies in the back.

The rhododendrons flowered for the first time since
we're in this house.

Last year I thought this was a weed and tried pulling it out.
It wouldn't come out so I cut it right to the ground.
It was obviously not a weed...

I planted veggies


And they're now in grow bags to be able to move with us.
Clockwise from top left: courgettes, peppers, squash, aubergine
and lettuce. The lettuce can stay. I don't like lettuce much.

The roses are looking amazing.
And there's this bush with pretty purple flowers.
Don't know what it's called.


More climbing roses at the back of the garden.


Loving our little garden. It's still got a little bit of English
in it, but neater, the way we like it.

  2. The blue coloured flower on the third picture is called Clematis. It has nice flowers and don't need very much of attention. Keep the root area in shade and the leaves in the sun.

    I can see that UK is the real rose country. Here close to Munich we struggle to get roses growing and flowering...
