| Delicate colour of Aquilegia |
Glorious weather has been encouraging all the plants to grow
and flower. .... including weeds! Lupins, Aconitums and Nepitas in the Walled
Garden are in full bloom, giving a lot of colours there. We planted Dahlias out
today as well. Head Gardener is changing the colour scheme slightly from the
last year so I am looking forward to seeing it in full in late summer, just
before I have to go away.

The other day, I was weeding out some Oxalis and here is a
picture to show you why it is very difficult to get rid of them completely –
you have to dig up all these bulblets. If you leave some, they will regrow!

Wisteria is looking beautiful and the air is filled with
scent – I actually don’t enjoy some of Wisteria’s scent but bees are loving it.
| Wisteria Bridge |
Most of cuttings we took last autumn / winter are growing
happily.
Added aquilegia and cow parsley to my list..
