A super "Science Behind the Fiction" event at #PortobelloBookFestival with #DougJohnstone (THE SPACE BETWEEN US) and myself talking about FRIEND ME.
We chatted about writing sci-fi proudly, how other writing like journalism affects our fiction, and the joys & terrors of Enceladus and AI. Thrilled to hear the sequel to Doug's book is out next march. Sci-fi forever!

The morning glory on ivy combo is gonna work so well: the rather young morning glory in a pot near an ivy covered wall has already climbed to nearly 2 m. Come springtime, and I will sow most of my morning glory seeds under the ivy. 😍

I am also a big fan of this plant. 😻
This year I found out that although the plants will die away during the winter, their seeds are frost hardy (at least down to −6°C). So come the spring and I will sow a lot of morning glories at the foot of a long ivy covered wall in my garden, in the hope that the glories will use the ivy as kind of a live trellis support and make the ivy more colourful during the summer. And if this works, I hope the seeds will germinate the year after and perpetuate the cycle.
Anyone here who have tried this?

Today for you I have tulip Clearwater, an elegant classic shape and a true white. Here with forget-me-nots and tulips Negrita Parrot and Uncle Tom.

Sedum, the September wildlife crowd-pleaser. Grown from a gift from my neighbour Tommy when we lived in Dublin. It's all over the garden now and it reminds me of him every time.

Surprise pink-toned lupin has appeared, possibly from a years-old seed from that one time I experimented with an apple blossom coloured lupin. Here making a May-like picture with pink and white erigeron.

Lily Empress is not at all shy: look at those layers of petals. The perfume is a garden-filling knockout of a fragrance. Like Anouska that I showed you the other day, this is a roselily, and it's my first year growing them. Here with the Barbie pink phlox and magenta lychis coronaria.

Morning glory Grandpa Otts: this electric beauty surprises me every morning as its trumpets open at different places on the vine. I managed to keep the slugs off (garlic spray!) when they were babies, so now about a dozen plants are climbing through the August garden. Each flower opens for just one day. But what a day.

Today for you I have the indescribable #lily Anouska, a fragrant double form that looks like a lotus before it opens fully to show its stamens. Until this year I've never grown one of these double doubles, which are known as roselilies, and I've been waiting for this day. It's a stunner and I'll be growing it again. Mainly I garden for fragrance, and this has a fresh, gorgeous floral scent that doesn't overwhelm.

The raspberry-red clematis on the left is Madame Julia Correvon, destroyed by the builders two years ago, or so I thought. It resprouted from below ground this spring. Here with a basket of petunias and the now-complete rose arch, with the twin ramblers Princesse Louise.
