In the words of the Met Office - ‘Slowly it will become less wet, less windy, less cool over the next few days, the keyword being slowly’. Wish it would get a move on!
Here’s ‘Véronique Sanson’ for #TulipTuesday
Have a good day everyone. #GardeningTwitter

#CheeringUpMondays - the dark & velvety lustre of ‘Queen of the Night’ tulip. Sits well with emerging rose foliage. What’s the rose? At the moment that’s top secret!
Have a good day everyone, take care, stay safe.

For Australia.🇦🇺
In sympathy. 🌹

Love creamy-yellow roses!😍🌹

Random (and totally bonkers) thought: if I was a tulip, I’d want to be ‘Black Parrot’.
I said it was bonkers!

Looks like it’s going to be a ‘sunshiny’ day.
Hope it’s the same where you are!
Have a good day everyone, take care.

For those of us impatiently awaiting the first rose blooms of the season, here’s a little beauty! #RoseWednesday

For #RoseWednesday ‘Meteor’ Rose of the Year 2024.
A very welcome still and sunny morning here.
Rain forecast later - of course!
Have a good day everyone, whatever the weather brings.

West coast of Hayling Island, this afternoon. Still blowing a gale.
I have nothing but admiration for this plucky little tree.
Strength in adversity. #stormyweather #hightide

These early roses are little gems. 💎♥️🌹😊

Wild & windy here on the south coast. The midnight tide was the highest ever recorded, resulting in sea flooding for some unfortunate folk.
For #TulipTuesday here’s ‘Doll’s Minuet’, a little short of stem - lovely all the same. #GardeningTwitter #tulips

#CheeringUpMondays It’s ‘Princess Irene’!
Looks like there will be the odd bit of sunshine, even more rain and high winds. Whatever the weather brings, have a good week everyone, take care.

First roses of the season are such a welcome sight. What a beauty. 🌹

Following yesterday’s post, Denman’s have kindly identified ‘Audrey’s relative’ as Mexican Lily, Beschorneria yuccoides.
A member of the asparagus family. Here’s another pic.
Will be treating asparagus spears with new respect!

Seen today Denmans Garden 🐦
Little doubt in my mind that this is a relative of Audrey, the ‘Little Shop of Horrors’ man-eating plant. Truly spectacular. 😊 #GardeningTwitter

Hang on to your Blossoms!
That is, if you’re in the path of #StormKathleen
Have a good weekend everyone, take care, stay safe.
Malus ‘Everest’.

Listen up rose pals. Might any of you have the ‘Nottingham Forest Rose’ growing in your garden? If so, Alison would love to hear from you! 🌹😊

The zingy spring green of Euphorbia Robbiae. Escaped from a pot & galloping across a raised bed of banked-up clay. Not much else wants to grow here, so I don’t mind. ‘They’ did say it would spread!
High winds forecast, take care.
