A Lincolnshire Garden

 Do you remember when we put this fence up earlier in the year to hide Paul's compost...


... and now


next year the climbing rose and honeysuckle should cover the archway

Elsewhere in the garden:-

 

Hebe flowering beneath the Tamarisk tree

Agapanthus just coming into bloom - I love the colour

Phlox

Honeysuckle

Jasmine

bedding dahlias add a splash of colour in the border

grass is nice and green after the recent rainfall

    It is all looking lovely, including Rick, of course.

    The agapanthus reminds me of a peacock's tail feathers.

      Not so serene when Rick is barking at the pigeons.

    That's quite a big garden. You and Paul have done wonders with it!

      Only about a third of an acre but plenty big enough for us.

    It looks quite big - very nice. Is the solar panel in the garden for some lights somewhere?

      Yes, we have some ferns, cordylines and hostas that we light up on the patio.

      The foxgloves have popped up all over the garden this year.

    It's usually about now that mowing drops from once a week to once every two weeks; but not this year. Grass is growing like crazy, and I have too much of it.

      But you do have a ride-on mower, Paul has to walk behind ours here.

    Lovely Sue, the perfect English garden. I hope Rick appreciates all the hard work you've put into it!
    I have the yellow honeysuckle, brought from our garden in the UK. I've taken cuttings several times and it flowers at least twice a year and is still growing like crazy.

      Honeysuckle is a favourite of mine but it does need taming. The jasmine has gone a bit wild this year too and will need cutting back in the autumn.
