After the Lord Mayor's show...
Eldest sapling's 18th went like a dream - even the weather held for us as it tipped it down 5 miles to either side. The garden did its quiet thing and framed the day beautifully. So now I've gone from a houseful to just three of us for a week with DB away. Some notes:- Anthems EC Buxton is as good as it looked in the picture I've been eyeing for the past three years. Should have bought it before.
- The sweet peas are at the top of the fence and beginning to thin a little - must keep picking.
- the french beans are perfect for once! No mollusc damage
- the cuttings of Ann Folkhard I took have both taken - really pleased! Just got to keep them over winter
- the carmine pelargonium I bought at Tatton looks wonderful against the emerging agapanthus - it's the same colour as the Rose 'The Times which is a few yards further back. They echo each other nicely.
