Summer's on the way with huge floppy oriental poppies...
..self-set aquilegias in every shade of pink, rose, purple and white...
...huge peonies just opening..


The flower beds are edged in a frill of London Pride

and hiding under the taller plants are sweetly scented lily of the valley

There's always one unseasonal flower though - a really early flowering kaffir lily
Many beautiful flowers.
ReplyDeleteMerle.........
With these aquilegias pictures you have helped me ID the flowers which have popped up in different places in my garden! I thought they were too pretty to be weeds, but no idea how they got there!
ReplyDeleteGlad to be helpful! I wonder how they got there....many birds spreading the seed?
DeleteYes, I thought that must have been the case. There are quite a few aquilegias and a poppy growing in my drive (which desperately needs to be re-gravelled!) I could work out what the poppy was but not the others.
