Repeat Flowering in the Garden

 


I have to start with the new Delphiniums. I was quite upset when I lost the old Pacific Giant. but I found these two at Chiltern View Garden Centre, in small pots and very cheap. After flowering in June, they were chopped down and are now in flower again as photos below.. One light pink, one light blue. Superb.





They are the highlight of the far end of the main border.

These were the Astrantia Salmon Pink in June

Today they are not so prolific after pruning a month ago, but still OK. 


In May, the blue Campanula was so healthy it eventually grew almost all the way across the path.


It had to be cut right back after flowering and is now just beginning to bloom once again.


This was the Weigela also in May when it is at it's best.


Again the flowering is not so dense, but still fine in August.


Of course the roses are great the second time around, especially the Blue for You.


And here are a few more.
