    Pink and blue clary with nasturtiums and rudbeckia all collapsed together!
    Can’t bring myself to rip em all out yet.

    • Welcome back Farend

      I have another surprising item from the garden. A gladioli, flowering for the first time since being planted 2 years ago! Don't think its bedmates are going to be so obliging - maybe next year.

      • Another one that should be thinking about going to sleep, a raspberry flower.

        • That's a lovely colour VC but the flower head isn't what I would associate with a gladi. is it a species or one that hasn't developed properly

          it may be a struggle to reach the top, but once your over the hill your problems start.

          • I think its just not standing up straight - its not fully open yet, either.
            There'll be another surprising item tomorrow - something for you to look forward to.

                • today my flower of the day is a calendula, and when I see this one where I have used my camera, I think if we do the same again next year I will use the camera for all the photos as a kindle just doesn't do the flowers justice

                        • as we seem to be going with an orange theme, just let your imagination go (not you VC just you picture it) and see this petunia in gold quickly taken between showers
