    Flowers are bacopa, white and blue trailing lobelia, fuschia,zonal pelargonium , surfinia petunia, french marigold and a trailing sweet pea. Thank goodness I took a photograph before we were inundated with rain again. The container itself is an ancient machine used to slice swedes for consumption by cattle known up here as a neep hasher.

            Our England is a garden, and such gardens are not made
            By singing-'Oh how beautiful!" and sitting in the shade,
            While better men than we go out and start their working lives
            At grubbing weeds from gravel paths with broken dinner-knives. ~ Rudyard Kipling

              It was hot enough this year to actually manage a decent head of basil hair.

                  A container with Minipop sweetcorn (we've had a few cobs and more coming), a Giant Pascal celery plant in the middle (in the kitchen roll tube), and a self-seeded Tumbling Tom tomato plant in the corner.
