Pretty Flowers

This has been a great year so far for the garden. There was no hard frost at all during the spring, & we've had lots of warm sunny days, but also a reasonable amount of rain. The aquilegia was especially good this year, & we had about 4 different shades in the garden.

The hanging baskets are also the best they ever have been.

The clematis was simply stunning...

While the roses and lillies added glorious scent.

The vege garden isn't looking too bad either. We are eating the first of the peas, & the runner beans are probably about 3 weeks away. We've got about 11 baby courgettes growing on our plants, & the carrots & onions are also looking good.
