Happy #MagentaMonday 🌸🐝🩷#CosmosChallenge2024

#MagentaMonday #CosmosChallenge2024 Morning after overnight rain, it still feels warm. The lovely Seashell Red Cosmos, have a great day all and enjoy 🌺😍🌸

Terence Fleming Lots of humidity this year and most of my roses have all had blackspot. In place of MW, I bought Souvenir du Docteur Jamain, which again is a sumptuous colour.

Good morning hoping my carrot monster unearthed yesterday will put a smile on your face 😄 anyone like to share a photo of theirs 😊

Morning 💙 One of the few true blue flowers - Salvia ‘Blue Angel’ 💙🌿 It’s not fully hardy but it’s come back for years now in my free draining soil #TuesdayBlue #grownfromseed #flowers

Cape saffron with a view for #ThickTrunkTuesday and the first Tuesday of spring. Happy trunking everyone 💚🪵🌿

Still not quite the ‘Gourmansun’ tomato that the seeds were sold as, but there’s definitely a family resemblance 🤣🍅🌿 #surpriseseeds #tomatotuesday #tomatoes #gyo

#RoseWednesday Good morning, out very early travelling…so hoping you all have a lovely day..I will ( hopefully ) be catching up tonight 🩷

As there’re no attractive looking roses in my garden this week, I’m taking you back to David Austin’s stand at the RHS Chelsea flower show. This is Rosa ‘James L. Austin 🌿💕😍🌸🌿 #RoseWednesday #flowershow David Austin Roses #roses

That’s the end of the rhubarb season, time to stop picking! The acting head gardener both harvested & baked a rhubarb cake 🍰 plus there’s plenty stewed & crumbled in the freezer, so the flavour will continue for a while yet 😋🌿 #kitchengarden #growyourown

💕💛 Just Be Yourself... Mirabilis jalapa (Four o'Clocks), Nyctaginaceae.

I love yellow roses. Not sure of the name of this one but it’s beautifully ruffled #RoseWednesday

Good morning, grey and damp start here but here’s a cheerful shot of the garden from last year #ThrowbackThursday Have a great day everyone #DailyDahlia #GardeningTwitter #GardeningX

Apple ‘Discovery’ is a great early eater, fresh & juicy with some lovely tropical fruit flavours 🍎 The crimson skin can be seen right across the garden. It’s even pink under the skin💕 One downside, it doesn’t keep, but as it’s the first that’s not a problem 😋🍎🌿 #apples #gyo

My white Thalictrum thrives down in the white garden, 6ft high with frothy flowers & Aquilegia type foliage 🌿🤍🌿🤍🌿 Unlike my pink one that’s never got going - ready for a move I think! 🤔 #whiteflowers #whitegarden #thalictrum

After a slow start there’re now plenty of flying insects in the garden 🐝🦋 Good to see the honey bees on the sedum or Hylotelephium if you’ve got your teeth in 🤣 🌸🐝🌿 #InsectThursday #insects #bees #MyGarden

Morning These asters, like some other flowers this year have been incredibly slow to open! But finally they’re opening 🌿💕💜💓🌿 #FlowersOnFriday #FridayFeelings #flowers

Misty and dull start here, but hey ho, can’t be sunshiney all the time! 😆 Hoping your day will be a beaut. 🌸🩷 #Gardening #FlowersOfTwitter #FlowersOnFriday #GardeningTwitter #DollysCottageGarden

Boil up the raspberries with a little sugar & honey. Spoon into ice-cube trays & freeze for later joy 🌿😋💕 #raspberries #summerfruit #gyo #kitchengarden #fruit
