A border lining our patio.
Echinacea purpurea, Gaura, Verbena hastata, Verbena bonariensis, ornamental grasses and wildflowers, such as poppies, mullein and several other self-sown individuals, before the draught bleached lawn give this border a meadow or prairie-like appearance.

In the midst of a Hydrangea macrophylla ‘Mariesii Lilacina’ grows a self-sown Achillea, maybe Yarrow, hard to know and very difficult to spot. Their flowers are absolutely identical in colour. Even their flower heads are similar in shape. Is this a case of perfect colour harmony or plant intelligence using colour as camouflage?

I planted this border in the garden predominantly with ornamental grasses, interplanted with tall perennials - and, of course, wildflowers, a.k.a. weeds. Couldn’t begin to list all the individuals, who live in there.

The blue flowering Salvia nemorosa 'Ostfriesland' are doing particularly well this year, their flowers have already lasted a long time. I love the combination of the Salvia with the fluffy Stipa tenuissima ‘Ponytail'.

Happy Solstice everyone!
In keeping with tradition, I harvested garlic this morning, on the longest day of the year. Not for tradition's sake but because I could see that it was ready to be harvested.

Previously, a small part of the garden by the side of the house was only grass, a tree, a few shrubs and hedging to the side and back - and it was a bit unloved.
Since the transformation, the distinction between inside and outdoors has been blurred. Sitting in the living room you can now not be quite certain where you are. The garden seems to be intent on coming into the house.

I love the garden at any time of the day. Without a doubt, though, the light is best early mornings and, as in this photograph, late afternoons.
As everywhere in the garden, the borders contain deliberately placed plants but welcome with open arms the many self-sown wildflowers.

I have been busy in the garden and I have revamped my website. Also decided that I would *try* to keep the ‘journal’, a.k.a. blog, a little more up-to-date.

We also have rabbits again. So far, relatively well behaved, sticking to the grass for culinary needs. Apart, that is, from one of the daylilies, which looks rather sorry for itself. And the primrose, which one of them ‘deadheaded’ whilst I was watching.

First sighting of a pair of ducks this year.
I had seen the male and the female earlier but today is the first time that I saw them together. I approached carefully to say 'hello' and supply a little more breakfast, expecting them to be shy initially. They weren't - both were supremely relaxed with me and confident.
They are also used to me pointing the camera at them.
We know each other well from previous years.

This afternoon, beautiful sunshine and mild. Suddenly, spring has decided to arrive.
It won't be long now before the big spring tidy in the garden.

Catkins on a Salix gracilistyla Mount Aso. The catkins are produced in spring before the leaves.
I moved this shrub a couple of years ago from an area, where it was not doing well. It is meant to grow up to three metres tall but is still tiny, probably on account of its hard start in life.

Started my sowing at the weekend. It's odd. Every year I am determined not to grow anything other than the essentials - vegetables and a few annuals. And every year I end up with a planting list as long as my arm. Does this sound familiar???
