My favourite plants

 

Of all my shrubs, the Weigela is the most dramatic. It was pruned hard in the Spring of last year as it become weak after all the previous years of flowering. The photo at the top shows light green leaves sprouting from the branches that were left. It obviously like being cut back as this year it has put on a wonderful show.

My favourite rose is the Blue for You. This is how it flowered last year and now has an abundance of flower buds like never before.

Unfortunately, the Delphinium Pacific Giant is no more, but these are a couple of cheap replacements that are about to flower. Of course I love the Alliums (see post of the 14th May) and some of the Geraniums. Will update later next month.
