Can We Have A Thread Of Pictures Too ?

[AnneKipanki]

@AlwaysOnAbloodyDiet
Started the first thread which is amazing. Please post pictures of your garden, pots , plants , or anything you find interesting or unusual.
My picture won't post .

The boat is a nice touch @waltzingparrot . Have you got any miniature model sailors?

@Crazzzycat , evening light , or shade , might be better . It stops the red being so saturated and stops the loss of definition.

@AnneKipanki No miniature sailors unfortunately. They'd only be bored though as the boat doesn't go anywhere - it kept capsizing so it's now glued to a pole that's been glued to a brick.

@AlwaysOnABloodyDiet - well worth the wait for your clematis it's a lovely colour.

@Waltzingparrot - I like your determination to keep the boat upright!

AlwaysOnABloodyDiet Fabulous colour clematis. I can't see a problem with the railings.

Waltzingparrot Gorgeous pond

Oldraver a dab hand with poppies and cane trellis, that honeysuckle looks lovely on it.

Oblomov20. You have got that clematis to cover your trellis well,mine are always bare uprights and flowers at the top. I would love lilies but lily beetle is too much of a nuisance in my garden, yours are a lovely rich sunny gold colour.

Joining in with the peony and red rose club. That first little rose is St Boniface and is 35 years old. It is in a terrible posiion in the bed but I daren't move it. The second much larger rose is Royal William in its second year with me.

More peonies and my first The Generous Gardener bloom last week

Missed commenting on that astounding strawberry , the soothing lavender and sea holly picture and the GJ amongst others no doubt. Is the fragrance heavenly AnneKipanki? I need more pots Giantkitten, really makes your backyard inviting.

@Noflora I think I have a Generous Gardener rose too! Really come into bloom this week. Lovely.

Lovely flowers @NoFlora! I’m seriously impressed that you have a 35 year old rose. It looks so healthy still 😮

Gorgeous clematis (or whatever the plural of clematis is) @AlwaysOnAbloodyDiet and @Oblomov20. Some of mine have yet to start flowering, so it looks like you’re ahead of me there

Absolutely stunning roses from everyone, I'm very impressed - and a little bit jealous!

@waltzingparrot I love the boat in your pond!

@GiantKitten your back yard is lovely, looks like a really nice spot to relax in.

My Peony has finally bloomed, another Rhododendron is coming out, and a Passionflower too.

@Noflora what a beautiful red rose ! And @tanqueray10 them pink roses are so pretty!! Think I have an obsession with roses haha

@Noflora, all I can say is I grow poppies and bamboo as they're easy

I have a lot of bamboo so a steady supply of canes

Lowering the tone a bit with my seedlings, but I’m quite attached to them as I’ve never got this far with growing from seed #minisculevictoriesinlockdown
(Sweet pea, green chilli, and some others)

@Airyfairy1 Well done! There is something so satisfying and exciting about growing something from seed!

Yes, well done @AiryFairy1. It looks a nice spot .
The GJ does have a gorgeous fragrance @Noflora

Hi everyone

Such fabulous pictures, I love seeing them all. It's made me want to join in

I bring you a rose,a peony and a poppy that's poking it's head through our front fence

Rose this morning

Hello @RaptorInaPorkPieHat
Lovely poppy, rose, and peony!

My campanula that I'm growing along the top of a wall. I love it!

I’m very jealous of all the beautiful roses too. They seem to be doing incredibly well this year? My FB is also full of them, and I wish I could smell them!

I have a picture of my clematis flowers this evening - separate plants in separate pots but climbing up together. I’ve no idea what they’re called, I think they both came from a supermarket. The blue one has been in for at least 10 years, in the same pot with a couple of top-dressings (pot is full to the brim now & water falls out ) & occasional feeds. It’s very tolerant!

Thanks for nice comments about my yard It is a lovely space, although currently DH gets the best of it as he loves sitting out in the sun & it’s too hot & glarey for me. (This isn’t a problem in Lancashire most years!)

I love the colour @GiantKitten .

Golden celebration, yesterday. It has opened up even more today, but colour has faded

Beautiful, @AlwaysOnAbloodyDiet . GJ has opened a bit too .

Here's my foxglove and campanula that have started to flower.

The beautiful roses just keep on coming! I love that clematis too GiantKitten. It’s such a pretty colour.

Speaking of clematis, my DH often accuses me of growing a lot of plants just because they provide good support for my ever growing clematis collection 🙈

He might have a point. I mean I like roses and all that stuff, but I like them even better when they have a clematis friend 😄 Here’s two of them.
